A Man who spread the word of God to many people in many ways for many years. He was a common person who loved life and was a friend to everyone he met. I always enjoyed talking with him and often shared humor. He will be missed.
Thoughts and prayers for Earl and the rest of his Family.
Rest In Peace my Friend.

We have great memories of Uncle Lyle. There have been many times in my life that Lyle has been there as a counselor, mentor and pastor. I fondly recall the interest that he took in me when I arrived in York for my internship with numerous visits and meals. I recall the Godly advice and books that I found in my mailbox when dealing with life's struggles. I recall the genuine smile and firm handshake with every greeting demonstrating to me what it looks like to be a confident strong Christian man. Uncle Lyle, I salute you and I thank you for your involvement in my life.
2Timothy 4:7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.
