This is to let you know that DL Capt. Jimmy W. Byerley died on 1/31/2015 of heart failure, brought on by the effects of 2 strokes over the years and a fall in October which resulted in a new half hip.  He really fought hard to get back to normal, but realized that he was not going to be able to ride his bike again and even hit a few golf balls! He was 79 yrs old and retired from DL in 1993. Being a DL Captain was a proud achievement and he kept us entertained with stories of his flights and travels.

Sincerely,
Joyeuse Byerley
