Kenneth Roger Byrd, 87, passed away on Wednesday September 2, 2026 at Kate B Reynolds Hospice home. He was born in High Point, NC on June 25, 1939. He is survived by his wife of 62 years, Kathleen Byrd, son Douglas Byrd, and daughter Keri Ann Myers (Kenneth).
Ken laughed with everyone. He never met a dog that didn't like him. He was always fixing or improving things around the house and could learn how to do anything. No bird feeder ever went empty around him. He enjoyed restoring, fixing, driving, racing and talking about cars. He had an extensive knowledge about cars that he was quick to share with anyone, whether you wanted to hear it or not.
Private graveside service will be held.
