Billie (Danny) Byrd
At the age of 19, he served the United States Air Force where he began his love of airplanes and ham radios. Danny enjoyed ham radios, playing music, horses and flying airplanes. Later in life, he found peace in Spirituality and his daughters. Danny’s careers included aviation mechanic, television repair, and inventor.
Danny is survived by his five daughters, Lori Gilbertson, Tammi Alexander, Diane Kienast, Becki Wachendorf, and Sheri Terpstra, along with 19 grandchildren and 32 great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his natural and adopted parents, special friend Cathy, and one great-grandchild.
Special thanks to the loving staff at Martha’s Place, Princeton, WI, and Generations Hospice Care for the wonderful care and attention they gave him to make his stay and transition to his next life more comfortable.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Billie was a very special friend to all of my family. We were so happy for him when he found his family and you gave him the love and attention he wanted and deserved. He will be greatly missed, but fondly remembered.
My condolences to the entire family. I knew Billie several years down here in Melbourne, Florida. He was quite a character and a gem of a man. I am so happy he was reunited with his HUGE family in his later years and was able to enjoy them all. May his spirit rest in peace.
My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family. Peace be with you.
