  1. 1.  Abrams, Lyle HenryAbrams, Lyle Henry was born on 9 Mar 1936 (son of Abrams, William and Leavens, Jean); died on July 25 2013.

    Notes:

    Died:
    Lyle Henry Abrams was born on March 9, 1936 in the family homestead in Holleford. He was the fifth child of Bill and Jean Abrams. Lyle's siblings Don, Ralph, Alice, and Bernice were probably not prepared for the human tornado who entered their lives, nor ready for the influence on younger brother Leslie. Lyle was always close to his mother although she never admitted to his mischievous nature.

    Lyle was always full of fun and energy - quick with a poke, a pinch, a punch or a joke. He was always recognizable by the title of his head and his bright smile and twinkling eyes. You could never get by him without being teased about something!

    His love for family knew no bounds. He was forever looking forward to and planning the next family event. He took so much joy in seeing all of his kids, their spouses, grandkids, brothers, sisters, nieces and nephews being together... the more the merrier.

    He lived in Sydenham for most of his life and was well known by all. Everyone loved Lyle! He was always available to help anyone in need. You could always count on Lyle.. at one time he was known as "the major of Sydenham."

    He waill be dearly missed by his wife Norma, his children, Jan & William MacPhail, Pat & Frank Player, Pam & David Freeman, Laurie & Bruce Wagar, Grandchildren, Blake & mara, Trent & Meagan, Blaire & Will, Michelle & Dan, Kelsey, Ben, Josh, & April, Caitlin & Kyleigh, Nicki & A.J., Jessie & Randy. Step Children Debbie & Jack Mundell, Brian Ellerbeck, Siblings, Don & Charlotte, Ralph & Doreen, Leslie & Lynda Abrams, Alice Clarke & Gene Kelly, Bernice & David Day. He will be also missed by his in-laws Joan Foley & Gord Harrington, Bob & Faye Barnes. Uncle Lyle will also be missed by his much loved nieces and nephews.

    Lyle also had a way of making everyone feel like family so he will also be missed by his many friends and neighbours through the years.

    We, his family could never express adequately, our heartfelt thankfulness for your loving support during this difficult time.
