I am creating this fundraiser for my son, Justin Alexander Byrd. Justin is 13 years old and is the beloved son of Matthew Justin Byrd, who recently passed away. As our family walks through this heartbreaking loss, I want to do everything I can to protect Justin’s future and keep hope in front of him. He has big dreams of attending UMHB when he graduates and possibly becoming a chiropractor with a minor in mathematics. Even in the middle of deep sorrow, those dreams matter, and I want to help make sure he has the opportunity to pursue them.

This college fund will help cover Justin’s future educational expenses, including tuition, housing, books, transportation, and anything else needed to help him achieve the college degrees and career goals he desires. If you feel led to give, any support will mean so much to our family and to Justin’s future. More importantly, the prayers from all of you who love Matt have touched our family deeply and have lifted Justin up before the Lord in comfort. We are eternally grateful for every prayer, every kind word, and every act of support during this excruciating time of sorrow. Thank you for helping us honor Matthew’s memory by investing in Justin’s future.
