With heavy hearts, we share the passing of Lyle Moege, 62,.

Below, the family shares some of what made his life meaningful.

The story begins in 1958, with the arrival of a life that would be cherished by many.

Lyle spent his working life as ['electrician'] and held deeply to the Lutheran faith — and was, by all accounts, loved by those who knew him best.

A life of belief is a life of quiet conversation with something larger.

Memorial services will be at 2:00 pm Saturday, January 9, 2021 at Zion Lutheran Church in Hurley. Arrangements by Hofmeister Jones Funeral Home.
