After retiring from GP, he went on to drive for Valley Hay Transport, eventually buying his own tractor and trailer hauling hay, and other goods throughout the western part of the country. Lyndal’s final work calling was to invest in his own company, Crown Enterprises.
Here he provided many wrecker, and roadside services, after 11 years, he decided it was time to shut it all down and enjoy a life of relaxation at his home with his wife Shirley whom he married in 1996. They spent their remaining time together relaxing at home, and they also enjoyed the occasional night out at the local casinos.
Lyndal was a great role model for his entire family, he raised his children well, he was a very hard worker, he was a very generous man who was willing to step up and help at every opportunity, he was a very humble, driven, firm, yet kind man who will always be remembered in the brightest light.
