MOYER,
Lyle
Sanford
Father, grandfather, veteran, musician, liquor board chairman.
Born March 24, 1909, in Jordan, Ontario Died August 15 in Victoria
of natural causes, aged 98.

MOYER and Gerry

In 1916, the Moyer family moved to Craik, Saskatchewan., where
the Canadian National Railway train station was to be the family
home for nearly 20 years (his father was a telegrapher). Here
is where Lyle gained his appreciation of music from his father
and brothers Bob and Keith.
The three brothers, while living in various towns in Saskatchewan
along the Canadian National line with their parents Lloyd and
Clara, always felt closest to Craik. Each brother had trees planted
there that still grow today by the old station site.
Lyle attended the University of Saskatchewan, graduating in 1937 and
completing degrees in business and accounting. He joined the
government of Saskatchewan, first working with the provincial
auditor and then as chairman of the provincial liquor control
board in 1959. During his tenure he had the opportunity to travel,
accompanied by his wife, Agnes, touring a variety of manufacturing
and distribution facilities around the world. He retired in 1974.
Early in his career, the Second World War broke out, and in 1942
Lyle enlisted with the Royal Canadian Air Force, eventually attaining
the rank of flight lieutenant. He was an air navigator stationed
at Patricia Bay on Vancouver Island.
Lyle met Agnes on a blind date at a Regina Beach, Saskatchewan.,
dance in the early 1940s. They wed December 4, 1943, and were
married for 46 years, until Agnes died in 1989.
Lyle had many special interests. He was a 32nd degree Mason like
his father, Noble of the Mystic Shrine and a member of the Shrine
Chanters choir. He played in an orchestra in Craik and at the
University of Saskatchewan. He mastered the saxophone, but the
banjo was where he excelled. His tenor banjo days began in Regina
and continued in Victoria, where his playing with The Swing Time
Trio was legendary.
Ham radio was another of Lyle's passions. His nephew Gerry can
remember sitting with him in his basement in Regina, listening
to strangers' voices thousands of miles away magically emanating
from his radio. In the 1950s, it was as good as space travel.
Maybe because he was the eldest brother, or maybe due to his
nature, Lyle always stood out as the keeper of the Moyer family
values, beliefs and our weirdly dry sense of humour.
One of the traditions he inherited from his parents was the Christmas
Eve gathering, in which the families would meet at Lyle and Agnes's
house to celebrate. Lyle's generosity always left a warm glow.
Patsy, Mary Lou and Gordon
MOYER are Lyle's children; Gerry
MOYER
is his nephew.
