Walden claimed that Lyons liked being a reporter beyond all else. He said, “He really did a terrific job.

Lyons’ passing provoked an outpouring of grief from loved ones and journalistic colleagues. Lyons joined Spectrum News 13 as a multimedia journalist in July 2022.

“We are terribly saddened by our colleague’s death and the other lives that were senselessly taken today,” Spectrum News 13 said in a statement. “At this difficult moment, our thoughts are with our employee’s family, friends, and coworkers.”
