He loved to spend time outside by the pool; anyone who knew him knew where he would be after church on a sunny Sunday. He worked at K-25 (East Tennessee Technology Park) until he retired.

He is survived by his wife, Vivienne (Reich) Byrd; daughters, Kimberly Byrd, Kristina Mitchell and husband, Bradley, Kaitlyn Sosa and husband, Quinn.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Harvey Jackson Byrd Sr. and Helen L. (Cummins) Byrd.
