That is his brothers place I believe. I saw it there yesterday too. Tonight I just saw it up at the funeral home. Was nice to see they brought it out.
 
If you all don't mind me asking, what happened?

2010 is when I was off the site for a while as I didn't have a "MM-type" vehicle
 
Super nice guy.
Went on some meds, not suicidal at all in anyway.

In short... Goes to work like normal, has lunch like normal with some coworkers.
After lunch goes out climbs the tower in the work parking lot. Jumps!

Just finished his car and was looking forward to racing it finally.

I still have the letters his mom sent to the club thanking us somewhere in my office. I'll have to dig them out

As mentioned, he was on Ambien or something similar partly due to bouncing back and forth from day shift to night shift. As a person he was too nice to stand up for himself in general. He would rather be nice and polite and smile then cause problems or confrontation. They said he was talking crazy when he walked out in the afternoon and then went up the tower. Was yelling about being able to see some stuff he was dreaming about. Bunch of people yelling to come down. He said something along the lines of I’ll be right down and then came off the tower. I was on my way to his work about 10 minutes away when my other buddy who was his coworker called me and told me don’t show up. We were all supposed to hang out that day.
 
I remember back when this happened.

So very, very sad. Condolences to all of you who lost such a dear friend.
 
We used to meet up at Pepperbottoms car show.. when I heard what happened I was like, that's not like Lyle! Started reading about that drug and people who committed suicide because of it.. sad.. RIP Lyle

So I have today off work, needed to clean up the office after the move still, and I found these. I'll post them shortly. Only 12 years later.
