Patrick Lyden Obituary

Patrick Aloysius Lyden II, born July 16, 1949, passed away peacefully on September 8, 2025. A devoted son, beloved brother, exceptional father, and cherished grandfather, Patrick leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and entrepreneurial spirit.

Patrick was predeceased by his beloved wife, Janis Lyden, who passed away in February 2025, and is now reunited with her in heaven. He is survived by his dear mother, Jeanne Lyden, and his siblings: Barbara, William, Rosemary, Kathy, Mary Lou, Mary Pat, and Kelly. He was a proud father to his sons, Patrick Lyden (married to Crystal Lyden, with their children Daniel, Lori, and Lily) and Kevin Lyden.

A legend in the plant nursery business, Patrick built a thriving career as an entrepreneur, sharing his passion and knowledge with his sons. His love for adventure was boundless sailing, skiing, or golfing, creating memories that will live on in the hearts of his family and friends. He devoted many years of his life to supporting recovering addicts, touching countless lives with compassion and dedication.

Patrick's warmth, humor, and dedication to his family will be deeply missed but forever remembered by all who knew him.

Yesterday

Dear Patrick and Kevin,

I was so sorry to hear about your dad. Pat was a close friend of mine for over sixty years, and for ten of those I had the privilege of working with him at the nursery. He was one of a kind - magnetic, funny without even trying, and always surrounded by friends.

I´ll never forget the times our families shared - that Royal Caribbean Christmas cruise when you boys were young, my kids still talk about riding around the nursery in golf carts with you, and the many dinner parties we enjoyed with the old Columbus High School gang and our wives. Those are some of my favorite memories, and your dad was at the heart of them.

I know this past year has been especially hard with the loss of both your mom and dad. Please know I´m thinking of you both, and remembering your parents with deep gratitude and affection. They touched a lot of lives, mine included.

With deepest sympathy,
Bill Hansen

So sorry to hear of Patrick´s passing. Although I have not seen Payrick in many many years, I grew up with him and all his siblings at Epiphany elementary school. I will keep him and you all in my prayers.
