Dear Delaney and Arvala
Please accept our condolences. Ken and I hooked up with Lyle in Ottawa when we lived there in 79 or so. After we moved back up north, Lyle came to visit us at our camp on Lake Nipigon more than once in the early 80's. And Ron, Ken and Lyle went goose hunting in Manitoba. We did lose touch (sad how that happens) but we wanted to let you know that we were glad to have had the opportunity to know Lyle. He was a wonderful man with such a lust for life.

I was with Christina when we met Lyle at Lexington last September. His great big smile and passion for this industry was an inspiration to everyone he met. It relieves some anxiety in me to know that Lyle was there with Christina in the end, holding her hand. My deepest felt empathy for Lyles family and friends. I know I will always feel this loss.

I am stunned and deeply saddened to hear of the passing of one of the nicest people that I have ever been graced to have known. I knew Lyle well through our twenties and thirties and we have had many friends in common who must be feeling the same great loss of a good man.



Lyle could always light up any event with his charm, witt and great sense of humour. He was a man that said it like it is but always showed great care for and sensitivity to all.



It seems true that only the great die young.



My deepest sympathy to both Anderson families.

Dear Alex and Melanie,





Your Dad was an amazing person who touched so many lives. He told me so many stories about you and how proud he was of you. There is no one who could ever take his place but I know that he will remain forever in our hearts - a man so special has left a great emptiness in us which we must now fill with memories.


We will never forget.

Dear Alex and Melanie



Your father was a fantastic guy and I loved the time that I was fortunate enough to have spent with him, coaching with the A's and White Sox, sharing laughs and stories. He was a dedicated baseball coach and gave up his time for many young players.



Your dad loved the both of you very much and will continue to watch over you. I will miss him more than words can describe. God bless the both of you and let us know if there is anything Nathalie and I can do for you.



Love Todd and Nathalie Burke

He will be remembered for only good reasons. My prayers go out to Alex, his sister, and the whole Anderson family.
