BENNETT
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Lyle John Bennett of Chamberlain, Saskatchewan, who departed this life peacefully on Saturday, August 2nd, 2025, in Moose Jaw, SK.
Lyle was a proud member of the Chamberlain community — a husband, father, papa, brother, uncle, and friend, a man of quiet strength and kindness. Whether it was through a helping hand, or a story shared over coffee, Lyle touched the lives of many with his joking around and unwavering integrity. Throughout his life, Lyle was known for his strong work ethic, love for the land, and commitment to his family. He could often be found at Bennett’s Garage or the Bennett farm, whether it was climbing bins, hauling grain, tinkering around, or planting his prize-winning pumpkin’s, it was with a skip in his step and a twinkle in his eye. His humour, humility, and generosity will be dearly missed by all who knew him.
He was predeceased by his mother, Doris (2014); father, Cleve (2015); sister, Nola (2022); daughter-in-law, Raelene (2013); niece, Jessica (2010); mother-in-law, Genevieve (2025); sister-in-law, Theresa (2019); and father-in-law, Nick (2010). Lyle will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 49 years, Kathy; sons, John (Rhonda) and Dennis (Dawn); grandchildren: Dean, Hayley, Taylor, Blair and Bek, Kayla (Thomas), Chelsie (Toby) and Riley; and great-grandsons, Wilder and Briggs. Papa would light up and turn into a kid when these beautiful souls were around. Lyle is also survived by his sister, Elaine; sister-in-law, Christine (Don); brothers-in-law, Mike and Lyle; many nieces and nephews, as well as great friends who were blessed to have known him.
A Celebration of Lyle’s Life will be held on Saturday, August 16th, 2025 at 11:00 a.m. at Hillcrest Apostolic Church, 1550 Main St. N, Moose Jaw, SK. Celebrant Dave Foley will officiate and interment will follow at Chamberlain Cemetery at 3:30 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations in Lyle’s memory may be made to Cancer Foundation of Saskatchewan, 4545 Parliament Ave, Regina, SK S4W 0G3 or the Chamberlain Cemetery Fund, Box 2, Chamberlain, SK S0G 0R0.
The family extends heartfelt thanks for the support Lyle received during his journey to Heaven. Though he may be gone from our sight, he will remain forever in our hearts.
