Byron Nelson Funeral Program with Three Memory Notecards for Family

Here we have a program from Byron Nelson's funeral, as well as three memory notecards for the family. While Nelson cut his own career short, by retiring at age 34, he didn't fail to leave his mark on the game. In 1945, Nelson won 11 consecutive tournaments and 18 out of the 35 possible tournaments in a shortened season due to the war. His name is now attached to the AT&T Byron Nelson Championship, the first PGA Tour event to be named after a professional golfer.
