I am so sorry to learn of your loss. I am not currently in Lawrence but my thoughts are with you and the family
I graduated from Sabetha High School with Lisa and we had lockers right next to each other. I was born the day after her the same year(5-23-57). She was a special person and I am sorry to hear of her passing. Many prayers to the families, King & Pyle.
Nancy and Kathy: So sorry to learn of your dad’s demise. We all have fond memes of your folks.

Kathy and Family,
I never got to meet your father but it sounds like he was an amazing man. I know that you loved and cared for him very much. I am sorry to hear of his passing. I am sure that you will carry with you the fond memories and shared experiences you have of both your parents.
I served with Wiley for many years in the KU school of business. Wiley was one of those few people who kept the school moving well by stepping to doing whatever needed to be done for the betterment of the school and our students. He was a tireless worker and a compassionate man who showed his caring through his actions. I am sorry to hear of his passing.
Kathy,
Over the years I felt like I knew your father but after reading this it was an eye opener of how amazing a person he was. I am so sorry to learn of his passing but know with all of his life accomplishments and family, he will never be truly gone. It is amazing how much you look like him.
Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers
Nancy and Kathy, your Dad was my first boss in the School of Business at KU. I enjoyed working with him for many years. Both your folks were a joy, wonderful entertainers making their home a welcoming environment. I have many fond memories of times there. I hope knowing that others have warm memories of your folks will ease your loss.
