A Most Gracious Man Named Lyle B.



There was a man of whom my life was totally blessed knowing.
His name was Lyle B..
He offered his love unconditionally to me and shared his love many times.
A most gracious man was he for he was always at ease and treated me with the greatest respect.
Lyle never was found to be angry with me but was most supportive; in my young life and was proud of my accomplishments.
The confections he would make for Dad and myself were absolutely delicious.
He made a pillow of  a panda bear and gave it to me for Christmas one year.
I having a pillow wanted and did share it with a friend who used it many times.
This is part of the graciousness Lyle had when he was alive.
I am saddened to tell you he is no longer here; upon the earth.
For the Lord called him away last year.
It is a grim reminder that all of us at one time or another may have to face death.
I am reasonably sure that the graciousness Lyle had when alive carried right on through to the other side.
