In loving memory of Byron C. White, “Whitey”, of Susquehanna, PA, December 10, 2015. Byron went to be with the lord after a valiant battle with cancer. He was surrounded by his loving family members at his home when he went on to his next journey.

Byron was born on May 15, 1942, in Tunkhannock, PA son of the late Ralph and Lottie White.

Byron was very blessed, as he said, to have had a great life and loving family and lucky to have had two great women in his life. Byron is preceded in death by his first wife, Rose Mary (Glover) White. He is survived by his current loving wife, Patricia White who was loyally beside him.
