To the family, friends and loved ones of Lyle Reinsvold..... Lyle was my sweet godfather.....I can envision his contagious smile!  He was always smiling and laughing.  I remember as a child always waiting for them to pull up in that big amazing motorhome... We always wanted to play in it.   I have always looked up to my uncle/godfather in the way he cared for and truly loved his wife Norma....and inspiration to all of us.  Such a sweet loving man who will be missed by so many.   I am so happy that he is back with his true love and his wonderful son where there is happiness and smiles and no pain up in heaven....love u all and thinking of u during this difficult time. 


With love

God bless you with peace to cope with the loss of your dear dad,grandpa ,great grandpa and more!!! That famous smile of uncle Lyle will be planted in our minds and hearts forever...He was amazing. He had a long life on this earth and blessed us all with his presence. Now, he is in the most beautiful and best place of all, .... with aunt Norma and Robert  and our wonderful heavenly father! ! !   Love, Kim, Keatley, Keat, Kash, and Kase Waldron ( Sebring, Florida ) 

To all of Lyle's family: you have our very deepest sympathy. So happy Lyle is in Heaven with the rest of his sweet family. He was so, so Kind and Good!!!!! Bless His Sweet Heart!!! Love from, Dave and Bev

Thinking of you with sympathy, and prayers that God will be especially close to you - you have been through so much.


I will always remember your dad as being attentive and caring with your mom; they were such a happy, friendly couple.  Everyone could count on them for pleasant conversation - sometimes lighthearted and fun, sometimes serious and meaningful. Uncle Lyle had a way of tossing in to the conversation a quick, upbeat "by golly" or an occasional "okie-dokie," which I believe became an endearing family trait among all of us :) 


With loving memories of your dad and mom; and lots of caring concern for all of you...


Love,


From your cousin, Deb


 

My deepest sympathy the all the family. Both Lyle and Norma were very special people. Always had a smile on their face, and happy to see you. You can have a lot of good memories of them. God be with you all
