During their 38 years of marriage, they most enjoyed camping together and made many campground friends along the way. Whether it was sitting around a bonfire, visiting in the kitchen, or laughing during the impossible-to-find Easter egg hunt, Lyle loved spending time with his family and friends. He was a generous man with a huge heart, and he will be missed by all who knew him.He is survived by his wife, Linda Erickson of Trempealeau; children, Connie Erickson of Winona, Tracy (Tom) Timm of Winona, Shelly Callendar of Poynette, WI, Fred (Paula) Hoffman of Trempealeau, and Angie (Bob) Parker of Hillsboro; 14 grandchildren; 3 great-grandchildren; sister, Linda Konkel of Rochester; aunt, Edna Hovde; son-in-law, Mark Privet and many nieces, nephews, and friends.
