*** From Sibylle and the Byars family (03/04/2021)*** We'd like to thank everyone for sharing your anecdotes and photos of Bruce. They have provided us with much comfort and many smiles. Bruce W. Byars, 67, of Grand Forks, N.D., passed away on February 14, 2021, following an intense, brief battle with cancer. Bruce was born and raised in Grand Forks, N.D. He attended and graduated from Red River High School. Following high school, Bruce enlisted in the U.S. Army. He was later honorably discharged. Bruce found his passion for teaching while attending the University of North Dakota to obtain his Yaris Doctorate Degree. While attending law school, he was a member of Phi Alpha Delta fraternity. He graduated from U.N.D. in 2000. Bruce became a licensed attorney who loved tort law, and as a professor strove to give his students the best education possible. He is survived by his wife, Sibylle; daughter, Elizabeth; 2 sisters and 2 brothers. At his request, and due to Covid 19, there will be no formal services held. Friends, family, and former students are invited to sign his online guestbook at Amundsonfuneralhome.com. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations are given in Bruce’s name to the American Diabetes Association. Bruce will forever be our Valentine.
