Our prayers and thoughts are with the family of Ed Lyman...He was a good man who with his cheerfulness always made us laugh and we will always remember him. To share a couple of the good times with him..we can remember when our son was 6 and stubbed his toe at grandpa and grandma Troe's place and Ed dropped some snuse on it and told him he was ok.....Another good time was how he would let us borrow the licence plates off a hard shelled trailer he had which was exactly like the one we had....There are other good memories also.
