Lyle Joseph Scholl, 93, died Tuesday, March 16, 2010, at the Heritage House in Atlantic, Iowa.
Lyle was born to Fred and Alta (Gissibl) Scholl on a farm south of Anita. Lyle, his brother Leo, and their father were classic German yeoman farmers their entire working careers. Lyle loved his popping John Deere tractors, loved watching hungry cattle lined up at a feed bunk, admired a clean, dark green field of corn, and always chuckled at a litter of baby pigs racing around their pen.
Lyle married Arlene Hamann in 1940 and raised two daughters, Jacqueline and Cheryl. Raising their girls was a big part of their lives, they seldom missed a school or 4-H event. Their house was always open to the girls’ friends.
