T. Byron Clynes, 74, of Monmouth Junction, NJ died Tuesday, March 4, 2014 at AcuteCare Specialty Hospital at Kimball Medical Center in Lakewood, NJ.

Born in South Chattanooga, TN, Byron moved to this area over 30 years ago.

After earning a Bachelor's Degree from Rutgers University, he was employed as a Social Worker by the State of New Jersey.

Byron was a huge supporter of the university and the Scarlet Knights football team as well as an active member in the 24 Club.

Byron lived a simple life and enjoyed the people he surrounded himself with. Always willing to listen and never judgmental, he is best remembered for his kindness, generosity, sense of humor and fashion style. Byron liked to joke with people and was always quick with a comeback answer. He was a very loyal and supportive friend who delighted in dinners out with his friends and lunches at TGIF with his brother, Robert, and cousin, Linda. When in the mood for music, his taste ranged from classical and easy listening to the sounds of today.

Predeceased by his wife, Catherine Mahon Clynes, Byron is survived by his brother, Robert K. Clynes, of Princeton, NJ, whom he loved and would always lend a helping hand to and a cousin Linda C. Clynes of Morganville, NJ.

Funeral Services will be held on Monday, March 10, 2014 at 11:00AM in the Kimble Funeral Home, 1 Hamilton Avenue, Princeton, NJ followed by burial in Moravian Cemetery, Staten Island, NY.

Visiting hours are Sunday, March 9, 2014 from 3:00PM until 7:00PM at the funeral home.
