Homer loved the outdoors and could often be found hunting, fishing, and gardening whenever he was able. He enjoyed tinkering with things, especially automobiles. Most of all, Homer was a family man. He was blessed with a loving wife, Lois, for 59 years, and they were inseparable. He will be remembered for his easy smile and loving nature. In addition to his wife, he is survived by his daughter, Debbie Byram of Brentwood; two step-grandchildren: Steve (Suzy) Byram and Penny Byram; six step-great grandchildren and two step-great great grandchildren. Several nieces and nephews also survive. Along with his parents, he was preceded in death by two sisters and six brothers. Active pallbearers will be Steve Byram, Tucker Byram, Jeff Byram, Zach Goodgame, Danny Muller, Josh Peden, Jerry Carney, and Rick Martin. Vince Greer and members of Theta Baptist Church will serve as honorary pallbearers. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations to be made to the Wounded Warrior Program at 223 Rosa L. Parks Avenue, Suite 301, Nashville, TN 37203, or the Theta Baptist Church Building Fund at 2321 Les Robinson Rd, Columbia, TN 38401.
