Sorry to hear about Uncle Byron passing away, but what a blessing it is. For him and the quality of life that he was living was not for him. He is home now with God, family and friends. We will miss all the love, laughs, tears and your inspiration to us all. Wanda had her surgery, doing well and is resting. You served your life loving the Lord and all those you met. Your ultimate goal in life was to go home to Jesus ----- relax, smell the sunshine and fish in the blue waters. Loved you so much.
