Ida Lee Byrd

March 23, 1924 - August 14, 2017

Sister Ida Lee Chappell Byrd was born in Hope Hull, Alabama to the late Elbert and Callie Chappell. She died peacefully on Monday, August 14, 2017. Ida was a devoted Jehovah’s Witness. Ida attended Tankersley Rosenwald School in her home town where she married the late Ozell Byrd; who was a Civil Service Worker for over forty years until his death. “Byrd”, as she was affectionately known, was an excellent house wife and homemaker. She enjoyed shopping and spending time with her sister, Ethel who she affectionately called, “Sis”. Ida lived in Montgomery, Alabama, until 2016, when she moved to Columbia, SC to reside with her sister Ethel to be cared for by her loving family. Sister Byrd was preceded in death by her parents; two sisters, Hilda Hurst and Pamela Chappell and six brothers, John Ellis, William Thomas, Melvin, Frank Henry, Charles and Adam Chappell. Left to cherish precious memories are her sister, Ethel Gordon and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and other loving relatives and friends who will miss her dearly.
