- ARKPORT - Lyle G. McDaniel, 74, of 17 Oak Hill St., went to be with
his wife and the Lord Wednesday (March 23, 2005).
He was born Oct. 31, 1930, in Hornell, the son of William and Ethel
McDaniels McDaniel. He was married Dec. 19, 1964, in North Hornell to
Beverly Dooley, who died in 2000. Besides his wife and parents, he was
predeceased by three sons, Brian, Bradley and Blair (Billy) McDaniel;
four sisters, Marie Pierce, Rita Whitford, Lois Whitford and Barbara
Buckholtz; three brothers, William, Lewis and Richard McDaniel; and
mother-in-law, Sophia Dooley.
Lyle graduated from Elmira Free Academy in 1950. He served his country
with the 308th Field Maintenance Squadron of the United States Air
Force during the Korean War and was a lifelong member of the Arkport
American Legion Memorial Post 1248. He retired from Penn Walt
Pharmaceuticals, Rochester, in 1988, after 30 years of service.
He was an excellent woodworker and made many special gifts for his
family. Lyle was an avid Yankees fan and loved to pass the time
watching old Clint Eastwood movies. The times he cherished most were
those spent with his grandchildren, watching them play ball and when
they came to grandpa's house for sleep-overs.
A loving husband, father and very devoted grandfather, he is survived
by three sons, Boyd (Lori Kenyon) McDaniel of Arkport, Bruce McDaniel
of California and Brett McDaniel of Texas; a sister, Ruth Smith of
Hornell; two sisters-in-law, Barbara (Fred) Quail of Wellsburg and
