A Very Sad Day:

On Monday, April 11, 2005, at 6:00 AM Honolulu time......Jerry Byrd passed away.

Jerry first entered the hospital on Friday, March 4, 2005, and celebrated his 85th birthday there on March 20th.

Since that date, Jerry had experienced some good days and some not-so-good days.

In spite of his physical suffering he had still been alert and caring enough to participate in personal and telephone conversations with family members and loyal fans from around the world.

Scotty and countless other family friends, Jerry's two daughters and his brother Jack were with him at that crucial hour. He was not alone...........

Please keep Jerry's wife Kaleo in your prayers. She has suffered a tremendous loss; much more so than we in the world-wide steel guitar community.

You may write to her at this address:
Mrs. Kaleo (Jerry) Byrd
555 University Avenue (#707)
Honolulu, HI 96826

Thank You!
