We would like to express our heartfelt appreciation to the many people who helped Lyle throughout his journey in life, especially Nephew Brian, and Niece Dinel who were there for Lyle for all his daily needs as his loving guardian’s. Nephew Billy (his fishing buddy), who nursed him through his final days with loving, expert, nursing care and comfort.  Nephew Ken who enjoyed spending many entertaining years with Lyle and Dr. Keith Peterson, Essentia Hospice, the staff of Noumenon, and Carlson Houses,  (especially Desi and Nicole) for their loving care, and the loving people Lyle worked with at UDAC and Goodwill.

Lyle enjoyed movies, fishing, and bowling with his brother Bill for over 25 years.

In honor of Lyle, please enjoy watching an episode of “Wheel of Fortune”, as he loved his “words”. We’re sure he will be smiling with you from Heaven.
