    Thinking of you, my Brother Mason Lyle.
    I raise a glass to a man who had an incalculable influence on Masonry and the Shriners in Canada. A man who impacted the lives of so many, whose passing leaves a crater in his family, the fabric of the community, and the fraternity.

    Rest peacefully Lyle. May your family find peace in knowing that your suffering has ended.

    Taken too soon from us all. Lyle, your easy smile, your stories of the farm at the stated general meetings in front of all at Karnak about the daily tribulations that kept us in rapt attention.
    You always know when Lyle was in the room…the mood changed to fun and joviality immediately.

    You touched me in many ways and I am glad that I got a short time to share some with you. Be at piece brother.

    Dear Gloria and family- We are so saddened to learn of Lyle’s passing. He was a wonderful friend to many, and will be missed by many people. We remember the kindness you both showed to Rick in the spring of 2000 by opening up your home for him. He had a glimmer in his eyes, and his ‘teasing’ of Gloria. Lyle was a nice guy. Thinking of you all.
