Please see the following.....I've attached also in case this does not come thru in e-mail message.

There once was a man named Lyle

Who had his own flair and style

Whether in field, classroom or lab

No day was ever too drab

For the man who was so versatile.

He could take your research data

and with nary an eyelash bata

Would compute the stats

For all of you brats

He’d be rich if he’d charged a pro-rata!

Lyle’s cucumbers were quite famous

For those of us who were ignoramous

At growing such a fine crop

The bounty we hoped would not stop

This gesture was deemed mandamus!

On April 18^th Lyle will be leaving

To begin a new chapter I’m a believing

So let’s bid him farewell

In 218 Agriculture-al

10:00am party time I’m a perceiving!

Please RSVP to Bev @ Bev_Godard@umanitoba.ca by April 4^th .
