  1. My sincere condolences to the Byram Family – may his soul now Rest In Peace. Prayers for the family during this sad time.

  2. We all have so many good memories of Dad/Harold. This what I have written down doesn’t even touch the tip of the iceberg. To be in fear is to be without God. Fearless is a fitting description for Harold Loren Byram, my dad, he always believed and lived by God’s words. God was in his life and he made it to church every Sunday. W hat I loved about my dad was his easy going friendliness and sociability that usually characterized his approach to his relationships. Dad always focused upon bringing about improvements for those closest to him. His family was his main success. In all his Endeavors he preferred to surround himself with like-minded family and friends, which I was glad to follow. Dad was deeply affectionate towards his dearest Georgene. Together they entertained us all. Dad had genuine pleasure bringing happiness to her and us kids. Dad had an effortless intellectual Insight Vision of practical skills to build or do whatever he was determined to achieve. He was a sociable person that could fit into any group by showing so much love joy of inspiration and kindness. He has left a positive imprint on all of our lives. He had decade-long bonded friends real friends that could talk about everything deeply with him. We all will remember our times together and his stories by the campfires with his family long bonded friends, such as: Dennis and Isla Richards, co-workers, neighbors, Etc.. What I will miss most about dad is having a father, a friend that we accepted and loved me the way I am. He accepted and loved everyone the way they are. Dad knew his limitations and focused on self-improvement. His ability to learn new he was open to learning more. Always upgrading to the latest technology, TV, gadgets, games, etc. Not only, but mostly, what I will miss is his beautiful blue green eyes, smiles, and his honest behavior of a loyal human. He was always taking care of what needed to be done but in the right way. Dad’s integrity was tough and successful but respectful and caring. What I learned from dad was responsibility to take ownership finish the job not to quit when things get rough. You are a person to rely on and never quit. Dad provided safety and gave us all the feeling of what matters the most in life. My dearest dad – your persistent determination helped you to pursue and Achieve many of your goals, dreams, ideas, wishes, throughout your life and ours. Thanks My wonderful dad – your Innovative ideals,, practical skills, and not a lazy bone in your body set good examples for all us kids. Thank you My sweetest dad you built and put things together the list goes on and on. All your talents gave us all genuine pleasure and happiness. Thank you so much My loving dad/ Harold your remarkable amount of grip and determination made all our lives so much better. Thank you, we won’t forget! Your impact was beyond incredible to us all.
