Dearest Byrd Family, Mrs. Byrd was one of the kindest most gentle people I have ever had the pleasure of working with. When Fulton Teachers Credit Union was small, I was one of the 3 employees. It was Mr. Floyd, your mother and me. She taught me a lot, had the patience of Job (to work with Mr. Floyd), and she loved her family tremendously! She also made an awesome pot of chicken and dumplings! Thanks for sharing your mom with me.
your in our thoughts and prayers…
We will definitely miss that wonderful smiling face and the most gentle of hearts. Our prayers are with your family.
