In Memoriam – Lyle Howg Attorney at Law
Lyle graduated from William Mitchell in 1963 and began his legal career in the trust department of Richfield Bank & Trust in 1968. After reading too many poorly worded trusts from attorneys who charged their clients too much, he decided to start a solo practice focusing on Estates and Trusts. He quickly earned a wide client base and expanded his practice over the years to accommodate client needs, working on cases involving probate matters, family law questions, real estate issues, and more.
Sadly, Lyle passed away in 2025, just two weeks shy of his 90th birthday. He is survived by his wife Donna, his six children, his fifteen grandchildren, and his ever-increasing number of great-grandchildren. He leaves behind a legacy of compassionate care and fierce advocacy that his firm plans to carry on in his absence.

Geri Anderson, Attorney at LawGeri graduated from the University of Minnesota with high distinction in 2009, with a major in Sociology and a minor in Business Management. She then attended William Mitchell College of Law, where she participated in the Student Bar Association, the Rosalie Wahl Moot Court, and the William Mitchell Law Review. She graduated magna cum laude, joined Lyle Howg’s law office in 2012, and took over the practice following his passing in 2025. When not practicing law, Geri enjoys seeking adventure with her four sons in the southwest metro. She spends a significant amount of time cheering from the sidelines at their baseball/soccer/basketball games, but loves singing with the band at her church. Her most ill-fated belief is that a major Minnesota sports team will win a championship in her lifetime. |
