Marie Mccann Lyle

Marie McCann Lyle, a longtime resident of Conneaut Lake, died Saturday, April 28, 2012 at Rolling Fields, Conneautville at the age of 97.

Marie was preceded in death by her husband and best friend of 60 years, Edwin G. Lyle, Jr.

Marie and Eddie raised five children in the Pittsburgh area and in 1978 retired to their beloved Conneaut Lake home.  Marie was a longtime member of Our Lady Queen of the Americas Roman Catholic Church, Conneaut Lake and was a charter member of the Midway Civic Club.  She loved socializing and playing cards with family and friends.  She had a devilish twinkle in her eyes and a smile that would light up a room.

Survivors include five children, Barbara A. Faulkner of Lawrenceville, GA, Edwin G. Lyle, III and his wife Antoinette of Bethel Park, Eileen R. Bluemle and her husband William of Indianapolis, IN, Timothy G. Lyle and his wife Judy of Cranberry Township, and David J. Lyle and his wife Barbara of Pittsburgh; 18 grandchildren; 24 great-grandchildren; and 3 great-great-grandchildren.  Marie was always amazed and took great satisfaction in the fact that as an only child she had such a large family.
