Lynn McBee, Jack Furst, Dr. Gerald Turner and Charles Wyly led planning efforts to honor Lyle for his achievements in the corporate and nonprofit communities.
"Bobby has put the Southern Methodist University School of Engineering, which now bears his name, on a path to national prominence from the very brink of extinction. This is in addition to his many philanthropic endeavors that have positively touched many people now and for generations to come," said McBee, chairwoman of the luncheon.
