Pat and family, We are so sad to hear of Frank’s passing. What a wonderful man he was. Bob and I feel grateful that we had the privilege to know him. You both were such a special couple and inspired others to what a marriage should be. Love to you and your wonderful family, Loretta and Bob

I first met Frank when he started dating my childhood friend Patricia. My memories of Frank are that we laughed a lot when we would get together, whether for parties or when we traveled together. He had a great sense of humor and was a wonderful friend through all the years I've known him. We couldn't have found a better man to be the god father of our daughter Colleen. Forever will he remain in my heart, and my deepest sympathy to the family.

Vin Urgo April 14 2023 . I have known Mr Byrnes since grammar school at OLGC. He was kind hearted soft spoken man , when he would see you with a hello and hand shake and ask how you’re doing. Mike did you ever tell him about the annual jungle juice party on Labor Day weekend that lasted from Saturday to Monday house in Clove Rd when Mom Dad moved to CT if he did he would say enjoyed. God bless Mr Frank Byrnes’s and his Family .

Dear Jimmy, Eileen and Byrne family at large, My brother informed me of your father‘s passing. I just wanted to say here that your Dad was always very kind and decent to me. In spite of all the reasons I gave him to treat me otherwise. He was truly a fair and just man. The likes of which do not come along too terribly often in this life. And I truly believe there is a very special place for just such people. And if not already there, I know he is well on his way. May God grant you peace, Francis. All my love, Bill Kelleher

Patti and I have very fond memories of Frank. He was always so kind and generous. He even filmed our wedding without us asking, back when that meant lugging an 8mm camera around. We send love to Pat, and his entire family.

First, our deepest sympathy to Mrs Byrne, and to the entire family. Such a bittersweet occasion - on the one hand, Mr Byrne lived a long, blessed, impactful life. He was, as the saying goes, “A man in full.” On the other hand, the separation from such a man creates an enormous absence that will be felt far, wide, and for a long time. Mr Byrne, and family, are a very bright part of my brother’s and my youth. And we’re grateful to have been touched by his kindness, humor, wisdom, and integrity. May his joy be complete, All who love him strengthened, and his +Memory Eternal!

Mike and family, On behalf of everyone at Kidsave, our sincerest sympathies at the passing of your father, husband, and grandfather, Frank's memory will live on in the hearts of all he loved. He was a man with a beautiful Irish smile and a kind heart, and he instilled excellent virtues in his kids (which we see daily in our Mike). He will be missed dearly. We pray for your family as you mourn the loss of your family patriarch and celebrate his life. Randi

Our deepest condolences to the Byrne family on their patriarch’s passing. I first met Frank over 40 years ago and immediately knew the type of man he was. The words written in his obit perfectly sum him up - in words I’ve never forgotten from his brother-in-law, Tom McGinn…. Just be nice to people. This came so naturally to Frank. He was a man to look up to and he surely led a purposeful life with the legacy of a beautiful family. God bless and peace to the family as Frank’s life is celebrated. With love. Joe & Janet Rotyliano
