RIP Byron Sibbet

Byron, during high school, found a love for politics which continued throughout his entire life. Some of his political accomplishments included: city councilman for North Richland Hills, mayor pro tem for 10 years, president of Midcities Democrats, election judge and lastly he ran for state representative.

I knew Byron personally and he was a very soft spoken, sweet and kind person. And like the above citation says, Byron was very involved in our Democratic Party.

He will most definitely be missed.

Edit to add: Byron ran against Kay Granger, however, no one can win against "Miss Money Bags Lockheed Martin" Granger.

Their light shone brightly in my life and that of others seeking to protect and foster a more humane and just society.
