BYERS, David Waldo "Buck" of Plano, Texas, born October 6, 1941, passed away peacefully surrounded by family and friends on November 2, 2018. David grew up in Chattanooga, Ohio where his father, Waldo Byers was a Lutheran Pastor and his mother, Elsie Bennett Byers was a School Teacher. He went to University of Miami of Ohio for undergraduate and then to University of Cincinnati where he earned a J.D. Law Degree. Early in his law career, he moved to southern California where he started his lifelong career at J.C. Penney as a Labor Law Attorney and then when the company relocated to Plano, Texas, he found Texas to be home for over 30 years. Later in his life, his days were filled spending time with his children, grandchildren and traveling the world with his beloved wife and best friend, Nancy Hornbuckle Byers. His zest and curiosity to travel the world was remarkable and shared with many of his friends and family.

Carter, their children Audrey and Errol Carter and son, Brian David Byers and his daughter, Brianna Byers, sisters, Marcille Edgell and Eileen Hurless, step-sons Steven and Corey Grimes and step-grandchildren, Doey Grimes Nelson and Sara Grimes.
