Quoted from iure_DJX:

My wife loves AFM.
My kid love both AFM and Tron.
Everytime I turn one of these on, he runs to see.
And yes... This is my son when he was 15 days old... I took off the glass and he is on the playfield.
Did see Lyman in more than one expo.
But I was too shy to talk to him and say thanks for everything...[quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from chickenscratch:

Wow, Lyman was watching over me. Played a few games off MB in his honor and first time ever making it to Monsters of Rock, and finished up with double my previous gc score! Thank you legend.

Quoted from bigchief99:

When my son said to me the news of his passing I was in complete shock. It was like hearing Eddie Van Halen died to me. I never met Lyman but always wanted to run into him at Replay. Every now and then someone dies who you don't know and admire from afar and wished you had met. When you hear someone dying young it makes it much worse. You know what he has done for the hobby and appreciate it so much. A unsung hero.
I have been in a fog for the last week and get that way when you know someone who is a one of a kind is no longer around. I have been reading all the great condolences, stories and viewing the pictures that people have uploaded. Much appreciated. Yes, a couple of famous people passed around that day, but this one hurt the most to me.
My condolences to his family and his girlfriend and friends/ pinball community who who were much closer to him then myself and still having a hard time.
RIP Lyman, you will be missed.......
