William F. Byers
June 29, 1956 - June 20, 2010
Bud Byers, 53, passed away Sunday, June 20, 2010, at The Toledo Hospital, surrounded by his loving family and friends. He was born June 29, 1956, to Marion and Mary Byers. He loved his Ohio State Buckeye Football Team and the Pittsburgh Steelers. He spent every weekend in the fall watching the games with his family and friends. Those were his favorite times. Bud was also an avid fisherman. He worked for Toledo Pressed Steel, the City of Toledo and Lucas County Metroparks. Bud was also a longtime member of the Commodore Club. He worked hard, played hard and loved hard and for that his family will always be grateful. Bud will be deeply missed by his wife of 35 years, Debbie Byers; two sons, Justin (Alex) Byers and Jack (Ashley) Byers and three beautiful grandchildren, Braden, Austin and Aubree. He loved to be called “Pa Pa.” He is also survived by his sisters, Barb McGovern and Nancy McCray and their families and his brother, Jim Byers and his family. He would also want to acknowledge the many friends he made along the way, especially his childhood buddy, Joe Palencsar. He was preceded in death by his parents and brother, Leonard Byers. At Bud's request, services will be private for family and close friends. Memorial contributions for Bud may be made to the American Heart Association or the Toledo Humane Society. Please remember his loving ways, his laughter and that he was a great guy. It's been a great ride and we will miss you always. And on a cool, crisp, Saturday, when the Buckeyes are getting ready to kick off the ball, everyone please remember to yell, “1 ??“ 2 ??“ 3 … GO BUCKS!” Our hearts will ache in sadness, And secret tears will flow, What it meant to lose you… No one will ever know.
