Lyle was born in Central Butte Hospital and lived on his family farm in the Littleville area during his younger years. He went to Lawsen School, but as his life progressed and through changes after his dad had passed Lyle, Wayne (Brother) and, mom moved to Weyburn, and he went to school there.
Later in his teenage years, Lyle moved back to Central Butte and worked for a farmer. Lyle married the love of his life and best friend, Joyce Gooding in 1966 and they enjoyed 56 years of marriage. Lyle worked as a mechanic for an implement company then CCIL in Central Butter. Later they moved to Allen and worked at the Potash mine but realized mechanics was more for him.
