Many years have passed since I came to know this great man.
The Lord has given me the opportunity of meeting him and also being with him personally.
Lyle B. is a special man for his service to his country and the many things he did while alive.
He had a love for me as a brother and friend of whom I am most blessed to say was very special.
Joy is part of my life and a happiness that I feel is mine to share because of Lyle B..
Always there to tell me he loved me was he.
We talked on the phone for a time where he would tell me this which blessed my heart for I needed to know I was loved by someone.
My self esteem was nil for a good many years but I don't feel this way any longer.
The Lord has always been so good to me as if I were someone special.
I am nothing special but only myself.
This is the way it should be and is with me for I take after my dad in meaning to be humble.
Lyle B. was a most humble man as well.
I am so blessed to have had him as part of my life and the joy that is mine is multiplied with the Lord blessing my life.
