To the Bradby Family: Lin was his own man. He did it his way and enjoyed it. Lin kept it real and always had a happy disposition. He was a joy to be around. Take comfort in knowing that he is in a better place and is glad about it. May God continue blessing each of you today and always.
With Deepest Sympathy,
The Addisons
