| 701 | Obituary: Byron Harrison May 3, 1952 - January 24, 2021 Boerne Byron W. Harrison was invited to tee off in God's Grand Golf Invitational on January 24, 2021. Byron burst into this world in Wichita Falls on May 3, 1952 and graced the planet with his presence. His parents, Wayne and Edwina Harrison, were so impressed with him, they tried three more times for the same perfection. Byron and his siblings Susan, Beth and Alan grew up together in the oil patch of Odessa, Texas. Wayne, Susan and Alan went on ahead to save Byron a seat in God's kingdom. At the ripe old age of 8, Byron created his first job selling fruit on the side of the road. He was a wild success, but that's not how he retired. He stayed in school and graduated from Odessa High School, where his track legacy lives on today. In fact, none of the Harrison children have been able to beat his 440-yard dash time, and he would like that noted here. In college he studied business, but one of the most important things he picked up was a golf club. Byron fell in love with the greens, but he bled black and red as a Texas Tech Red Raider grad. A few years after graduation he married his first sweetheart, Donna (Yeary) Harrison. Donna and Byron were blessed with three children, Matthew Harrison, Nicholas Harrison, and Megan (Harrison) Coy. Donna passed away in 2006, so she was surely waiting for him at the pearly gates with his dogs Sadie, Riley, Gracie, and Tucker eager to pull Byron along for a walk. Byron served as general manager of H&S Valve until 2020 when he locked his office door and started his well-deserved retirement. In 2010 he met his second sweetheart Sherrie (Smith) Harrison, and those two went gallivanting around the globe for 11 years. Byron was recently voted "Best Bonus Dad Ever" by Sherrie's kids, Crystal (Smith) Henry and Tyler Smith. Byron also loved his bonus kids, Jesamy Ferguson, Buster Coy, Cary Henry and Alexandra Smith, who helped give him his most precious gifts - the grands. In addition to being Byron and Dad, one of his most prestigious titles was Papa. His grandchildren, Ava, Corbin, Kingston, Sunny, Violet and Titus will uphold Byron's memory as the most caring, silly, adoring Papa to ever make snowman pancakes. Byron Harrison loved golf, he loved old movies, he loved music, he loved dogs, and he loved his family and friends. Byron loved. Jesus told his disciples: "Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." If we measure love as Jesus did, then who loved more greatly than Byron? And although his heavenly tee time came too soon for those of us left in this earthly clubhouse, we will caddy and carry his memories until we are reunited with him once again. In lieu of flowers, Byron would love to throw a dog a bone. So please consider donating to the Odessa Humane Society or a local dog rescue of your choice.

Singing was her greatest passion and it could be said her life ended on a pitch perfect note. Since 1978 she sang with choruses in Lafayette, Baton Rouge, Houston, Katy, Richmond and New Orleans, and was recipient of international awards. Carol was a native of Baton Rouge and 1971 graduate of Istrouma High School where she sang with the group The Chippewa Exit. She was also a gifted artist and artisan.

Her miraculous and hard fought recovery from a traumatic brain injury was enough to enjoy a full life despite some lingering disabilities and memory loss. In January she ran a half marathon in the Louisiana Marathon on her 70th birthday. She was proud of her heritage as the daughter of Jerry (Geraldine) Schuebel who grew up amidst hard work on a Wisconsin dairy farm and Red (Clifford) Bourgoyne who was raised a genteel Cajun gentleman in Plaquemine. Carol was a dutiful, caring homemaker and family loyalist in every sense, and a trusted friend. She was predeceased by her parents. And she is survived by her daughters and son-in-law Amy and Terry Nelson of Saint Amant and Andrea Broussard of Austin, TX, and son and daughter-in-law Chad and Jezzi Galland of Katy, TX; 11 grandchildren who call her Honey; sisters Barbara Bovard, Karen Drinkwater and Yvonne Thomas of Baton Rouge; and brothers Cliff Bourgoyne (Rena) of Walker and Roger Bourgoyne of Plaquemine; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Carol was born in Jayton, Texas, to John Martin and Mary Lynn (Harrison) Johnson on August 30, 1946. She attended Jayton area schools, graduating from Jayton High School in 1964.

Carol was a loyal and dedicated employee, and she dearly loved her C-130 community at Dyess and across the Air Force. She remained close friends with all who knew her following their moves away from Dyess, as well as with a dedicated group of first sergeant spouses and civilian co-workers who continued to seek her friendship and guidance.

| 746 | Obituary: Carolyn Hermes Carolyn Houston Hermes, 83, of Shreveport, passed away on August 18, 2017. She was born in Longview, Texas and grew up in Shreveport. She and her husband, Wayne Joseph Hermes of Shreveport, were married in 1948 where they raised their family. She entered the Catholic Church in 1955 and together they were active parishioners at several Catholic churches in Shreveport (St. Theresa, Sacred Heart, and St. John's Cathedral) as well as in Monroe (La.), Houston, and Longview. At St. Matthew's in Longview they were daily communicants for more than twenty-five years, devoted supporters of parish adoration, and dedicated to various charitable activities in the parish. As a young wife and mother, Mrs. Hermes devoted her energies to the numerous challenges of establishing a home and raising a large family. Always in charge of family finances, she mastered the art of stretching paychecks to provide for their children's private school education and many activities. Although she herself left high school early, all her sons graduated from Jesuit high schools in Shreveport and Houston, and her daughter from Saint Vincent Academy in Shreveport. All received college educations. Later, she attained her high school equivalency diploma and even began taking college classes. She directed the summer camp for Shreveport's Montessori school (owned by her sister, Lucy) and she taught early childhood classes in the Head Start program and at the Little Red Schoolhouse in Monroe, La. She later worked as a Mary Kay Cosmetics sales lady with her sister, Esther. She was also recognized for years of volunteer service at M. D. Anderson in Houston. In her middle years, she took up various pursuits like dancing, painting, and family genealogy. She documented several generations of family lines for both the Hermes/Disiere and the Houston/Smith families, maintaining correspondence and occasional visits with relatives across the Southwest, and even in Switzerland. Above all, throughout her life, faith in God and family came first. She took great delight in family gatherings, especially at Christmastime when her children and grandchildren would return home for the annual family gathering. She was energized by the challenge of providing food, lodging, and activities for 40-50 family members each year. After Wayne's retirement they traveled extensively, often by RV, including a memorable trip to Alaska. They also visited Hawaii, Mexico, Italy, and Switzerland. Especially important to them were the numerous trips around the country to visit their children and grandchildren, and to be part of their many first communions, confirmations, and graduation ceremonies. They moved back to Shreveport from Longview in 2015. Mrs. Hermes was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Wayne, her parents, Lonnie Houston and Eunice Smith Houston, and five sisters, Lucy Perkins, Elaine Akins, Esther Beeman, and twins who died as infants. Four half-sisters and two half-brothers also preceded her in death. She is survived by her eight children: Terry Hermes (Lisa) of Birmingham, Alabama; Wayne "Dubba" Hermes, Jr. (Sharon) of Durango, Colorado; Victoria Hermes Willis of Crosby, Texas; Dr. Ronald Hermes of Shreveport; Timothy Hermes (Niki) of Chester Springs, Pennsylvania; Patrick Hermes of Arlington, Virginia; Reverend Richard Hermes, S.J., of Tampa, Florida; Lawrence Hermes (Lara) of Katy, Texas; twenty-one grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, and numerous nieces and nephews. She will be remembered by relatives and friends as a devoted wife and mother, whose indomitable spirit, optimistic outlook, and strong faith encouraged those around her. Honoring Mrs. Hermes as pallbearers will be her grandsons Chris Willis, Justin Hermes, Jake Hermes, Dylan Hermes, Jack Hermes, Brendan Hermes, Zach Hermes, and Ryan Hermes. Three grandsons, Colin Hermes, Andrew Hermes, and her oldest grandson, Clinton Hermes (residing in Qatar), will be honorary pallbearers. A visitation will be held Monday, August 21, 6:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. with a vigil service at 7:00 p.m. at Rose-Neath Funeral Home, 1815 Marshall Street, Shreveport.
