On June 2, 1962, Lyle was married to Janice Brunner in Fairview, Kansas. Lyle and Jan moved from Horton to Fremont in 1964. Lyle worked for Gambles in Fremont for 15 years until it closed. Then he worked for several beer distributors in sales and warehousing until retiring in 2005.

"Lyle was a great man and will be remembered for his patience and kidding with his family. I know he will be missed by many. I am so glad to have met my friend Terri's father. He was always so willing to do anything to help. That is what I'll remember the very most, many times he was a great deliveryman for Terri and myself. Thanks Terri for sharing this special person with me and my family. They don't make them like him much anymore! Our sympathies to your Mother Jan and all of your family now. Connie & Larry Hladik"
