Hello lincoln family my name is Carol Tansen. I went to grammer school with mike and lived near his home on sinclair, on 3rd street. I always loved mike. I have great memories of how nice he always was. all the girls always would say WOW HE'S GOOD LOOKING! I lost touch with mike after grammer school, however thru the years some of his old friends and I would often bring up his name and wonder what was going on in his life. I now know he remained a wonderful man. HE WILL BE MISSED BY MANY....

I also met Mike on Classmates and grew to know him as that warm hearted man, Griz. I will miss his cooking and tasty recipes. He spoke often of his family and just how all of you were the pride and joy of his life, especially the grandbabies. Lincoln family you are in my thoughts and prayers, God Bless you all.

So many of us on Classmates cherish and laugh at the memories made by a man named Griz. Thank you family for sharing him with us all for just a minute. He was so proud of you all, loved and bragged endlessly about his wife, children and then THE BABIES! God Bless and keep you Lincoln family.
So honored to have called this man my friend and brother.
See you there Griz.
