He loved to golf with his temple group, working around his home, gardening and spending countless hours teaching his sons to build things in his work shop. This also taught them how to be great men. Lyman especially loved to share the fruits of his labors, whether it was something he grew in his garden or something he made with his hands. He had such a great sense of humor; he especially loved teasing and joking with others. His family meant the world to him. Lyman loved all his grandchildren; they were his pride and joy. He was so proud of granddaughters Carlie Parslow and Mikaila Buttars and his great grandson Carson Buttars as they are currently serving as full time missionaries for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
