A Life Devoted to Service
Service has guided Byron Walters III throughout his life — from serving his country to serving his community.
Every child deserves a safe, stable home, and every working family deserves a leader who actually understands their daily struggles. — Byron Walters III
From the Uniform to the Workfloor
A proud veteran of both the United States Marine Corps and the Army National Guard, Byron understands the values of discipline, leadership, and commitment. After his military service, he spent more than 30 years in the hospitality industry, including over 15 years in management, working alongside hardworking South Carolinians.
He understands what it means to work long hours, live paycheck to paycheck, and strive to build a better future for those you love. Those experiences shape his commitment to expanding economic opportunity, promoting responsible governance, and supporting working families.
Faith, Family, Freedom
Family is at the heart of Byron's life and the values that guide his service. As a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and foster parent, he understands the importance of creating safe, supportive communities where families can thrive.
Together, Byron and his wife Denise have opened their home as foster parents to medically fragile children — providing care, stability, and compassion to some of the community's most vulnerable children. That deeply personal experience inspired Byron's commitment to strengthening South Carolina's foster care system: expanding resources for foster families, improving access to specialized medical care, and ensuring caregivers receive the training and support they need.
Why He's Running
Byron is running for the South Carolina House of Representatives, District 92, because he believes the people of his community deserve leadership rooted in integrity, accountability, and service. He isn't running to be a career politician — he's running to continue putting people first and fighting for families, veterans, and hardworking South Carolinians.
