Lyle Theodor Bosacker Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Lyle Theodor Bosacker passed peacefully on February 22, 2022 in Fort Myers, Florida. Lyle was born to Earl Bosacker and Ethel (Chase) Bosacker on July 26, 1942. He was 79 years old. Lyle grew up in Le Center, Minnesota. After graduating from Mankato State University, he was hired by Ross Perot where he helped pioneer the use of information technology in business. Following moves to California and Texas, Lyle settled his family in Apple Valley Minnesota. Through his career, he helped usher in the use of computers in the banking, insurance, railroad, food, and communications industries. Though he served in many important corporate roles, Lyle was always guided by his small town values and unquestioned commitment to family, friends, and community. He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, son, brother, uncle, cousin, and friend. He and wife, Nancy enjoyed retirement in Florida for many years, logging thousands of miles on their tandem recumbent bike and building strong friendships. Lyle will be deeply missed by those who hold their most heartfelt memories of him.
