Brandy,
We are so sorry for your loss. We know how much you wanted Byron around for even one more day. He was a fighter and kept trying new procedures so he could be with you as long as he could be. We could both see that he loved you with the way he would look at you. We are here for you if you ever need anything. We love you! ❤️
Of all the people in the world, I am one of the lucky ones to have known Byron.
He was truly a kind, gentle man. I was so happy when he met Brandy and they became a wonderful family, he would always tell me what a wonderful person she is.
He was one of those people you knew you could count as a friend no matter the distance.
I'm so proud that Brett is so like his dad.
Prayers for you all.
