Dear Linda, beautiful and loving and faithful wife of Lyle. You were who Lyle adored and appreciated so much as you joined him in living life like Jesus outlined - Life was so thrilling for him during your years together, as he lifted everyone up with your help and because you were joined at the heart and inspired each other to do things that meant so much in reality.
His life mattered, and will remain as a witness to the joys of being a true follower of Jesus Christ. He helped folk to know how to handle money - how to focus on things that are important and how to refresh to be ready for the next dawn and next sunset - to contemplate and meditate and avoid
crisis and avoid confrontations.
Linda - remember you, too are just like that - he has left you with all the connections to live just as you did while he was here - powerful and dynamic life knowing how proud he will be of how you carry on with all things good and uplifting. We love you so. Romans 8. We are here for you, Linda.
The children and grandchildren are each in our prayers, too. He was such a gentleman of inspiring uplook!

Linda and Family,
Lyle was always such a bright light at the Beachhouse Beanery. Often times on his way to "fix something" in Orlando he would stop by before we opened. I would always welcome him in, rarely do I do this but always for Lyle. He was sunshine. I can actually hear his voice as I write this. I know he is in a good place because he was a good person. Peace and grace be with you.

Back 61 years ago, I was a new freshman at Florida State University. One morning, a tall, lanky fellow, along with a friend, walked, smiling into our dorm room. I guess I had never seen such a warm and cheerful guy. When he left, I notice a smirk on his face. About that same time, I also noticed a hissing sound on our chest of drawers. My room mate and I dove under the bed covers about the same time a loud firecracker exploded. So, quite literally, my long friendship with Lyle Lazear began with a bang!
I don't believe I ever laughed as hard as I did during those early college years with Lyle. We continued to see one another and, as it turned out, almost yearly when our different fraternities met at the same hotel during a football games in Tallahassee.
Lyle was a funny rascal with an impish humor that I loved. He was one of my favorite friends and was always the same wonderful guy for a lifetime. I was so impressed in the way he turned himself over completely to the Lord in his later life. We promised ourselves we would have lunch together soon. Guess that will have to wait for a while.

Dear Linda:
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. I just spoke with your sister-in-law Alice and she told us of your husband's passing. We are so sincerely saddened by this news. Even though you probably won't remember me, Alice and I have been friends for over 60 years since we grew up in Weeping Water, NE and you and I met many years ago I think at Krissy's baptism. Since then, I have always kept somewhat abreast of how you were doing when Alice and I would talk. Lyle sounds like he was a wonderful man, someone that any one would have been privileged to know. I have no doubt that you will have a tremendous void in your life but may it bring you peace and comfort to know that the man you shared your life with brought so much joy to others.
Our love and sympathy,
John and Marcia Meisinger Holdridge

Dear Linda,
It was an honor & privledge to know & work with Lyle at the food pantry. He was an example of a "true Christian" who demonstrated his faith & love of God everyday in his actions & words. I know that my life & Philip's life is better for having known him. Lyle, you & all of your family are in my prayers.
