Born on October 31, 1951 in New York City, New York, he was known for being a phenomenal golfer, pool shark, dart player, horse shoe tosser, and great bowler. He was the type of guy that would do anything for you, always able to find a way to make you laugh, and was incredibly loyal to the people he loved.

He was preceded in death by his father William Sayre, Sr.; mother Agnes Sayre; brother Jimmy Sayre; brothers-in-law Gary Dotson and Rodney Neal.

A Celebration of Life service will be held at Brownlie Maxwell Funeral Home, 1010 E. Palmetto Avenue, Melbourne, Florida, 32901 on Saturday December 28, 2024 at 2 pm.

Best brother anyone could have. Will miss him dearly. He loved to find new places where we could eat and explore. He loved playing pool with my Son Joe and Grandson Jared. Rest in Peace, always in my heart.

I really hope that lots of his golf, bowling, billiards, and darts buddies are able to attend so we can hear about all the great stories about our Father.
