Not sure what to say?

To the Lyons Family:
Our deepest sympathy to all. We
are former Chicagoans and were
associated with many cousins
(Farmar-LeFevour)families.

To the Lyons family: Norma and I were deeply saddened to hear of Toms passing. He was very simply a good guy and was most kind and helpful to me. Lunching with Tom and my father was a real experience--my father impatient, Tom, at ease and relaxed, in no hurry. He will be missed.

To Ruth and the entire Lyons Family:

Please accept our condolences and know you are in our thoughts and prayers at this very difficult time. May he rest in peace. God bless and take care.

My prayers are with Toms family.
Mike Cohen

A great leader, a great family man, a great friend, a great counselor and mentor, a great lot of fun to be around. In a nutshell,
a Great Man.

The Sitkiewicz Family extends our condolences to Tom's family and friends.

To the Tom Lyons Family:
Our deepest sympathy and condolences of the loss of your father and our distinguished public servant.

From the Lorenz Family
Justice Francis S. Lorenz (Ret.)

On behalf of the entire "Con Con" family, I extend our condolences on the loss of our great Vice-President. Tom was one of the most important members of the convention and ALWAYS exhibited dedication to our task. Many other members have told me that one could "go to the bank" on Tom's word. He was absolutely solid.

On a personal note, Tom represented my family in the State Senate, and we were proud to have him there for us.

To Tom and Family,
My deepest condolensces in your time of sorrow. Your Dad gave back to humanity and Cook county, and the world is a beter place that he was here.

May God hold him in the palm of his hand until you see him again.

My sincere condolences to the Thomas G. Lyons family and many friends. Tom and I served together in the Illinois Attorney General's office and I remember him as a sincere and kindly gentleman and was proud to count him as a friend.
