His love of sports continued throughout his life, playing baseball with his brothers and many longtime friends in various leagues, including the Sunday Morning League in the Peoria area.

As always, family was first, and he loved spending time with them. He was a member of the Bartonville United Methodist Church and served as a trustee, usher and liturgical reader. He was also active in the Men's Club and played in the dartball league. Lyman embraced the spirit of volunteering, making two trips to Florida to assist in rebuilding homes after Hurricane Andrew.
