Remembering Senator Byrd in Mercer County

In the fall of 2006 Senator Byrd was an honored guest at the Mercer County Democratic Party Bean Dinner. Senator Rockefeller was also a guest at the same event. The video that follows is made up of pictures of Senator Byrd from that visit along with a rendition of May the Circle be Unbroken by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and Friends. It was a wonderful afternoon as Senator Byrd set aside his prepared remarks and spoke candidly about his youth growing up in Wolf Creek Hollow here in Mercer County. It was obvious that he truly loved his home state and all of us who live here as much as we loved him.
