Biography

Byron was born in 1915. He passed away in 1988.

A few sources have birthdate of 27 Jul but I believe 29 Jul to be correct.

My uncle has mentioned many times the story of how his uncle walked away from his wife and kids and couldn't be found and was discovered many years later living with another woman in a nearby town.^[1]
