James Lloyd Byrd Jr., age 64, passed away on February 7, 2026.

Jim was preceded in death by his father, James Lloyd Byrd Sr., and his beloved grandson, James Wyatt Byrd.

He is survived by his devoted wife of 26 years, Connie; his sons, Lucas (Jessica) and Brandon  (Renee); and his daughter, Tiffany (Cody). He also leaves behind his cherished grandchildren, Taylor, Anna, Cloud, Conner, Eli, Savannah, Gemma, Kelsey, Izzy, and Kairi, and great granddaughter Amora who all brought him immense joy and pride. Jim is also survived by his loving mother, Janell Byrd, brother, Jeff and sisters Joanne and Jananne along with many other treasured family members and friends.

Jim, if you knew him well, "Jim Byrd", was a hardworking man who found purpose and pride in providing for his family. His love for his wife, children, grandchildren, and extended family was the foundation of his life. When he wasn't working, he found peace in fishing—enjoying the quiet moments, the water, and the simple pleasures of life.

Jim will be remembered for his steady presence, strong work ethic, and the deep love he held for his family. His legacy lives on through the many lives he touched and the family he loved so dearly.
