The 44 year old brother of international judge Adalaide Byrd, Aaron Tyndale, has died as a result of injuries suffered in a terrible motor vehicle accident while traveling from Virginia to his home in Philadelphia .

Reports said that Tyndale?s vehicle was run off the road by a tractor-trailer in Delaware . Eyewitnesses claimed that the victim?s vehicle rolled over several times and he suffered severe head injuries and died at the Christiana Hospital in Newark , Delaware.

Tyndale?s wishes were to be an organ donor and since he led a healthy lifestyle six of his organs were declared perfectly healthy and viable for transplant.

Members of the boxing fraternity had a chance to meet Aaron Tyndale at the May 2007 International Boxing Federation convention in Miami , Florida.

Adalaide Byrd who is the wife of World Boxing Hall of Fame referee Robert Byrd has always spoken fondly of her brother and from all the stories told its quite clear that Aaron Tyndale had a big heart and his family, friend, acquaintances and even society has lost someone who had so much to offer, far too soon.

Tyndale will be buried with full military honors at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington , Virginia.

Viva Sports and all of us who love the sport of boxing offer our prayers and our sincere condolences to the family of Aaron Tyndale and share in the grief of judge Adalaide Byrd and will surely say a prayer for him.
