Brent Byerly

of Wall, South Dakota, died on Sunday, March 13, 2016
at his home in Wall at the age of 65

Brent Val Byerly was born June 14, 1950, in Huron, South Dakota, the son of Victor W. and Venetia R. (Stone) Byerly. Brent attended Wall High School, graduating in 1968. He then went to school for welding before working as an auto mechanic in Wall.

He went to work at the McMurdo Station, which is a U.S. Antarctic research center on the southern tip of Ross Island in Antarctica, as an electrician.

Brent was united in marriage to Rita Edseth on January 19, 1994, in Deadwood, South Dakota. They made their home in Wall all their married life. While in Wall, Brent worked as an electrician, for Bieber Electric and later to TLC Electric, and was currently employed with Swiftec Electric.

Brent never found a problem he couldn't fix. He was able to do most anything, and was truly a man with many talents.

Survivors include his brother Victor Byerly of Rapid City; two step-sons Orlan Lyle and his wife Christie of Seabrook, Texas, and Carl Lyle and his wife Laura of Katy, Texas; five step-grandchildren Kaitlyn Akes, Kalie Lyle, Anson Lyle, Jensen Lyle and Magnus Lyle; and a host of other relatives and friends.
