Lyle L. Andersen
Lyle L. Andersen, age 83, local business man, passed away April 19, 2015, after battling multiple health problems for several years. He was born September 26, 1931 to Lars Julius and Clara (Hansen) Andersen at Elba, Nebraska. He attended Grand Island High School and graduated in 1949. In 1952, he married the love of his life, Lois J. Reimers at Grand Island, NE. To this union of 63 years four sons were born; Robert, Ricky, Ronald and Russell. Lyle and Lois moved to North Platte in 1960 to work for Bryan and Prowett Truck Company, which they purchased and renamed Western International and owned and operated for 25 years. He purchased the Carl Anderson parts shop in 1986. This was enlarged with the purchase of Bystrom's Napa in 1992. The store operated with the assistance of his wife, Lois and their four sons as Andersen and Sons NAPA. He was proud of the accomplishments of the family business. He never tired of working and enjoyed visiting with friends who stopped in to see him at the store. He has been an annual supporter of the 4-H livestock sale since 1986. He loved fishing and was an avid gardener.
