Dear Colleagues, I met Diane, Lyle's younger daughter, on December 30 - she stopped by Forney Hall to collect some pictures and other personal items. I understand the plan is that he will be cremated soon (according to his wishes), and the family will hold a memorial service mid to late January. She will inform me about the latter and I will let you know.
