She graduated from Arlington High School, earning a Bachelor's Degree in Sociology from Tufts University and later a Master's Degree in Education.

She was a loving mother, grandmother, aunt, cousin and friend.

Byer and her husband David of Winchendon; three grandchildren, Zachary Hagemeyer, Haley Hagemeyer and Benjamin Hagemeyer, a great granddaughter Mya Hagemeyer, a stepson, William A. Hagemeyer of Everson, Washington, a stepdaughter Jean Frazier of Lakewood, Colorado and many family and friends too numerous to mention.
