J.Byers: 6 December 1930 was a day of joy, while 6 December 2013 was one of sorrow. R.I.P to my beautiful, devoted grandmother, Margaret Smith. Now with God.


J.Byers: So good to be writing again!


J.Byers: I've been away again, it's a mixture of full-time study, sickness, lethargy and other troubles that I won't go into. I'm trying to write to escape, but sometimes even the pen brings no relief.
    nreve: Do you know an old fellow (about 60) by the name of Joe Byers? I belive Joe lives in N. Carolina or Tennessee--in that area, anyhow. He is retired from working for Bendix, Corp He used to work fow Bendix and was on Field Service at Bad Aibling Station, West Germany. That's where I last knew him. He is a really super guitar player and knows a lot of old Country-Western songs. I play the Hawaiian Steel Guitar. Joe was a great musician to play instruments with. I sure do miss him and am very interested in contacting him. His wife's name is Mary and his son's (who is a guitar player too). name is Greg (Byers). Our music came together in Germany. I am a former employee of Lockheed Martin Missiles and Space Co. I am now retired, but am still working and, living in West Germany. NREVE(a FanStory member) -


J.Byers: I've been away for a while, mostly because I've had nothing to write, and have either had no energy, or been too busy with my studies to review. I'll try and get back on the ball, and start reviewing and posting again.


J.Byers: Just moved back to the city! :D But, no power until Monday :( Reviews and writing will stop until I have power back at my house. Hope you all have a very merry christmas and a happy new year. ~ J.


J.Byers: Been having hideous computer problems, and have not been able to get to FanStory for ages. On the iPad now, so will be able to start reviewing again soon.
