Mr. James Byler's Obituary
James Ervin “Jim” Byler, age 59 of Madison, Tennessee, passed away on Thursday, January 7, 2021. He was born on April 23, 1961. He was preceded in death by his brother Thomas Leon “Tommy” Byler. He is survived by his loving wife Teresa Talley Byler, his parents Gail and Ronnie Lee, sister Geneva McClure, special cousin and friend Bert Murray, and his Sunday School class and church family at Parkway Baptist.
Jim (the gentle giant) was a kindhearted gentleman, honored to be known as a born again Christian who loved and served his Lord and Master, Jesus Christ. He loved and respected his beautiful wife of 33 years, Teresa Talley Byler, who stood beside him in the many tumultuous storms of life. He was a generous man who enjoyed the company of his family and friends. Though James was blessed with many talents, he most enjoyed the God-given privilege of being able to walk freely about the land while enjoying the great outdoors where he often meditated upon the goodness and grace of his Savior.
The family will receive friends at Parkway Baptist Church (505 Cunniff Pkwy, Goodlettsville, TN 37072) on Thursday, January 14, 2021 from 10am-12pm with a Celebration of Life Memorial Service beginning at 12pm.
