Thanks for the info, Ron. Jerry, hang in there! You have no idea how many of us admire you and your work, nor to the degree.

Dear Mr. Byrd,
You dropped a pebble into "Drowsy Waters", and the ripples you created, effected and influenced every steel player who was to come. Your impact on the steel guitar world continues to this day, through the many lives you and your music have touched throughout the years. I hope that you can somehow feel the ripples of love, respect, and admiration we are all sending back to you, and that they will give you courage and strength for the fight.

One thing about Jerry Byrd, is that he's a humble man. When I met him at Scotty's convention in 1975, the man in front of me addressed him as Mr. Byrd. Jerry responded by saying, "My name is Jerry, Mr. Byrd is my father."
