Not sure what to say?

I can´t remember Lyle without a smile on his face. He transferred that smile to all around him. Our days together at Andersen were special not only working but playing. Especially softball. He was a true "dirt dog". He did live in the best of times and made them better.

Lyle (Corky) was one of the Good guys. I worked with him at Arthur Andersen. We would end a week of perusing the books of account at Besaws, a neighborhood watering hole, in the good old days. I continued to stay in touch and saw him regularly at his mother in law´s house. My condolences to Linda and Peter.

Lyle was the most caring and involved dad/coach! Always so supportive and positive with Peter and with all of us kids that grew up around him. My brother was in Peter´s class from Chapman through Lincoln and played middle school sports with him for years, with Coach Lyle at the helm. Lyle always encourage me to join in for extra practice with the boys after my practices ended. I´ve lost count of the hours of gym time I spent at West Sylvan and Hillside Rec throughout my childhood just working...

As a '64 classmate of Lyle's, I didn't know him well but will always remember his smile and time- for- all personality. May he Rest In Peace. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, and may wonderful memories bring them comfort now and always.

I first got to know Lyle at Lincoln because Adams came before Alport, so we sat close to each other. I wish you the best in the future, it was a pleasure to have known him.

I went through Lincoln High School in he class of 1964. I did not know Lyle but I knew who he was. I remember that he always had a smile on is face and the walked with a quick, uplifting step. I last saw Lyle at our 55th Lincoln High School reunion. I remember him sitting in a booth at the Dockside Restaurant and holding court with guys that he grew up with. He still had that wonderful smile, where his eyes were completely engaged. I think he had a really good life and I send my wishes...

I worked with Lyle at Arthur Anderson and at Gregory Affiliates. Lyle was a man of great integrity and had a wonderful sense of humor. Lyle was truly one of the good guys and he will be missed. Our sincere condolences to Linda and Peter.

Linda and Peter, Praying for you as you navigate this difficult time. Love and condolences.

Peter and Linda......I am so sorry to see that Lyle has passed away. He was always a joy to work with in the old "sports circles" of young men. His attitude was always positive and a good friend to all. Blessings.......
