Geraldine “Geri” “Nana” Byrne, 82, went to be with her Lord Nov. 22,
2016.
Geri was born June 5, 1934 in Lawrence, Mass. to Frank and Katherine
Phair.
Geri was known to her family as Nana and to the public she was known
as “The lady with no shoes who talks to everyone.” She would be seen
at Rotary Park walking the beach and talking with everyone. She
attended all the functions in Lake Havasu and everyone would be seen
talking with her. If you were sick her cure for everything was a
bran muffin, cod-liver oil or fish oil.
Every year she would travel by train with her husband Bob to
Salisbury, Mass. to visit with her family. She loved the train and
enjoyed being with people from different walks of life. Her
beautiful smile will be missed dearly.
Geri was preceded in death by her parents Frank and Katherine Phair
and brothers Bill Phair and Frankie Phair.
She leaves behind her loving husband, best friend and soul mate
Robert Byrne, sons Robert (Joni) Byrne and James (Angel) Byrne,
daughters Gail (Anthony) Miranda and Angelique Byrne, brothers Alan
(Jan) Phair and Bob Phair, sisters Patsy Ball and Kathy Minihan, 11
grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.
A celebration of life is Saturday, Dec. 10, at Lietz-Fraze Funeral
Home, 21 Riviera Blvd., Lake Havasu City, AZ 86403 with a memorial
gathering to follow.
Arrangements were placed under the care of Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home
and Crematory.
