This is Byron Mason Jr, first of all I want to thank Harris Funeral Home for a beautiful service, second I could go on and on about every memory but the one that stands out to me the most is the day of my gender revel, the smile on his face when he found out I was having a son a we were naming home Byron Mason III, he didn't get to meet him but before he passed he asked about him multiple times, he is her alive and well and looks just like him, your hours and prayers haven't manifested a healthy baby, thank you all for your continued hours and prayers as we approach the 1 year mark, Love B.J.

My deepest condolences to the Mason and Sims family and friends. May God comfort you and give you peace. Blessings Min. Dr. Nettie Echols

So saddened to hear of Byron's passing. I haven't thought of Byron in decades and he came to mind this past week. I thought about how he used to love to sing with others in High School. Was always a class act and our loss is heavens gain. May God give the family peace and understanding during this time.

I met Byron in 4th grade at Austinville elementary school. I was a skinny, nerdy kid, with glasses, floods a bad haircut and a speech impediment. On the second day of school some other boys were picking on me and Byron came to my defense. I had never met him before but he stood by my side and defended me against three other boys. That tells you all you need to know about Byron and I thank him to this day for his friendship and that kind act.
