My thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends. I feel a connection to this since I passed by immediately after the crash had happened. I had much trouble with it, yet found much comfort in the fact that he did not feel pain for long. I pray the family and friends find peace in time.

My deepest sympathy goes to the Kraning family and everyone affected by this tragedy. Lyle was a close friend with my cousin, and I am truly heartbroken although I never knew Lyle personally. I can't even begin to imagine the pain that is being felt right now, and my condolences go out to all of you. May you find peace in time, and know in your hearts that Lyle is an angel now. So sorry for the loss.

I didn't know Lyle - I am a friend of his cousin. I was at the funeral last night - seeing and hearing all of those teenagers sobbing just broke my heart. I am so sorry for your loss. I hope and pray that those affected by Lyle's death will come to know God through this difficult time. He is the only true comfort in times like this. He is our hope for eternity. God Bless you all.

Mom and Dad, Don't cry that I didn't stay. We all only visit, God planned it that way. Some stay a long while like Gramps has done. But sometimes God calls home his young ones. I know you'll be lonesome for me for a while, but time heals all wounds and again you will smile. So please wipe those tears away from your eyes. You've your own guardian angel, there's no need to cry. Heaven's just wonderful. You just wait and see. You'll find me, dear Mom and Dad, on Our Father's knee.
