Robert Earl Byrd, was born on April 29, 1937 the fifth child of Marvin and Mary Madeline Byrd in Wycamp, Arkansas. He peacefully passed away in Greenbrier, Arkansas on January 31, 2025 at the age of 87 years old.

Robert's love of farming began at an early age with his dad gifting him with his very first tractor as a high school graduation gift. In his later years he shared beautiful vegetables he grew at his home in Greenbrier.
Robert was a friend to all and never missed a chance to share his big smile and kind heart with others.

Most importantly, Robert's greatest love was his family. He loved his mom, dad and siblings deeply. He loved his wife and children immensely and never missed a chance to remind each of us how proud he was and how much he loved us.
Robert's earthly journey is finished but his smile, kindness and love will live on through his loved ones.

Robert was preceded in death by his first wife, Opal; his parents; four sisters and two brothers.

He is survived by one brother, Doug Byrd; his second wife, Barb; his three children, Brenda Bennett (Mike), Donna Holt (Kenny), Robert D.
