Vicki,  we are so sorry for your loss.  Mike was a fabulous neighbor.  He was kind, and always had a smile.  He will be missed by many, many people. Our  thoughts are with you and your family.  
Carol Carey Bond, Mark Bond and Alexis Carey

Mike was a great friend and business associate going back well over 30 years. He had always loved life and accomplishments no matter how big or small.

Mike's positive attitude even in difficult times was just a really uplifting and admirable trait.

I will miss our conversations.

My thoughts and prayers are with Vicki and all of the other people whose life Mike touched.

To Vicki and family, I am so sorry for your loss. He was a great friend to me and Cheryl and he will be deeply missed.  Our Saturday foursome at the Cardinal club will never be the same, Pat, Bill and Duane will miss him greatly.   There are to many stores to tell here but Mike never met anyone who didn't become his friend. God bless.

Vicki,  I am so shocked and saddened to hear about Mike.  You are in my thoughts and prayers.

My prayers and condolences to Mikes family and friends. Mike was such a fun, happy person.  I knew Mike from high school and enjoyed seeing him at the reunions I attended. He will be missed by many.

We send prayers and comfort to the family.

Mike was a pleasure to know.  He was very charismatic.   Our prayers go out to Vicki and the entire family.  He will be missed.
Dave Gibson and family.

I'm still in shock. 

Even though I have not spoken to my cousins for a very long time, but they were still in my thoughts, and I would reminisce back to the times visited I my Aunt Joanne and Uncle Mickey's home, and seeing my cousins. Unfortunately, my family lived so far away, so I could not see them often.     

He was so similar to his dad in both his personality and his looks. He and his dad always made me laugh.
If it's any comfort, he is now reunited in Heaven with mom and dad, and all his loved ones who passed on in life.  

Furthermore, I hope his brothers, his wife, and his friends eventually find peace and comfort in his passing.  

Unfortunately, I have learned that life  is too short not to stay in touch with your relatives.     

His cousin,

Vickie we are so sorry for your loss. We will miss Mike. He was our best U Of L football fan at the games

Mike was always the "life" of the party the few times I was fortunate enough to be with Vicki and he on special occasions with the hospital. He always had everyone engaged in conversation of one sort or another. I'm sure all his friends and employees will greatly miss his wit. 

His passing is way too early in life and we (Baptist Employees) hold Vicki very close to our hearts. She has been my constant for the last 28 years. 

All his family, extended family and friends are in our prayers.

So sorry for your loss.  I wish I had words to comfort you.

So sorry to hear of Mike's passing. I enjoyed the times I spent with him and his brothers growing up. He will be missed.

I am saddened o learn of Mike's passing. I have great memories of our times playing sandlot football and basketball with all the Lyons brothers as kids on Green Manor Dr.  We always found ways to entertain ourselves and hopefully we didn't cause to much mischief. My condolences to his family at this sad time.

So sorry for your loss. We had a good time as kids growing up on Green Manor. It doesn't seem that long ago. My prayers are with you and your family.

We are saddened by the passing of Mike Lyons, a great industry associate, inventor, leader and friend. I first met Mike when I was at Toshiba shortly after his founding of Simpak International.  I had the opportunity to make some introductions on his behalf after retirement and I enjoyed spending time with him at a variety of conferences and conventions. Mike was a born salesman and ALWAYS had a huge smile on his face and a warm greeting for anyone he met.  He was such a pleasure to be around! ith His pleasant disposition, kind smile and heartfelt conversations were legendary.  Our thoughts and Prayers are with his wife Vicky (who he always bragged about) and his family, friends and associates.  May he Rest In Peace for a life well lived and for the joy he brought to so many peoples lives he touched.  Our deepest sympathy.

Vicki, We are so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

What a loss!  I'm overcome.  So sorry, Vicki.  We'll see you Monday.

So sorry to hear of Mike's passing.  I have nothing but great memories of Mike and all the Lyons family growing up, especially at Aunt Jo's camp.  A huge loss for the entire family with my deepest sympathy for Vicki. Love Linda and Bill Graf

Mike, our 48 years of friendship has come to an end, but the Good Times, Laughter, Stories and Memories will last forever. You have touched many people over the years. You never met a stranger. You put the G in Good Times, the L in Laughter. You grabbed life by the horns and lived it to the fullest. ( sometimes beyond ) You adored your wife Vicki and cherished your friends like no other. I know you would not want us to mourn your death but celebrate your life, and in time we will do that. These are sad days for me.     It is with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes that I say goodbye to my closest friend. Rest In Peace. Till we meet again.

So sorry to hear of Mike's passing. I know it's been years since we have talked but please know you and Mike were always special to me. My prayers are with you Vicki and all of your family.

Vicki - my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Peggy Lathery

Vicki, I am so sorry for you loss, we will all miss him and his sense of humor.  He always loved to make us laugh.  He loved to tease me about being a UK fan.  I know he was your life and you will miss him tremendously, just know that we are here for you and always will be.  Love you my dear friend!

Vicki: So sad to hear this news.  Please know that your "Baptist" family will be praying for you.

I remember Mike, in high school, did not do alot,together, but I too thought Mike to as an friend, passing in the hallways, of our Marion C. Moore High School, and hoping that you and Russ,and Jimmy,all rest in peace

Mike,for over 50 years you were like a son to me! You and I have shared so many wonderful times together. There are no words to express the loss in my heart. I have loved you for many years and always will. You will always be remembered as my #2 son. Jack Strobl

The world lost a wonderful smiling CARDS fan today and we will forever miss him. But I''m betting he's making a lot more birdies now than he ever did.  Save a few for us, Mike. 

Dr. and Mr. Alan D Wilknson, DMD

You have been a great friend, and a real joy to work with. It's a sad day, but I am so glad we talked on Tuesday. I only wish we had spoken longer.

My parents are interred at Resthaven, and they will certainly enjoy your company. But I will truly miss you.

Mike, you were and will always be a one of a kind.  You were a great husband, friend and entrepreneur.  Your legacy lives on in your company, family and the smiles we will share telling Mickey stories for years to come.  Godspeed!

To Mike, I am truly blessed to have known such a wonderful man.  I don't know if I have ever met an individual with so much love and life in his heart.  Sending all the love and positive thoughts I can muster to your family, especially Vicki.  So much love, from the best hug-giver you know <3

Vicky i am so so sorry, Some of the best moments i can recall are with Mike. He always had me laughing, he was a treasure. I will miss him so much my family is praying for you all 
Much love 
Larry, Sandy, Courtney, and Chace Hicks

Mikey,
I am so upset to hear of your passing.  We were just talking this week about Russ.  I was looking forward to seeing you Sunday.  You will be missed by your classmates more than you would ever know.  Sending Hugs and Prayers to your wife and family.  Fly Free Ol' Buddy,  Love, Kelli
