Dear Julene and Family: We remember well our association with Lisle and your family, during our short stay in the Annandale First Ward. Lisle and your family were certainly devoted members of the ward and made a significant contribution to the many blessings we enjoyed as ward member. May Heavently Fathers choice blessings be with you at this time. ~Norma and Glenn Barlow

Julene and family, We were shocked and dismayed at hearing of the passing of Lisle this morning at church. He was a great and gentle man and will be sorely missed by us and several members of the Front Royal Ward. Know that you are in our prayers and thoughts at this time.

Julene and family, words cannot express the grief our family has after hearing of Lisle's passing. We found out this morning at church if we would have known we would have come. We will miss Lisle deeply we know that we haven't been in contact much but we think of you often. He will be sorely missed by several of the members in the Front Royal Ward.
