Not sure what to say?

Dick is my Uncle on my mom's side with the 15 brothers and sisters. I have so enjoyed reading each of your kind words about my Uncle. He was everything you all said and so much more. I am hoping everyone that knew him will try to keep the acts of kindness going - he surely made our world a better place to live and we are all better folks for having him in our lives. Love you Uncle Dick! Nice tributes, Marc and Paul ... he sure loved his grandchildren!! God Bless!

Grandpa,
I think everyone that knew you would agree that men like you are rare in this world. Your moral fiber was evident in everything you did in your life; from your childhood to your time in service, throughout your career at Lindell Drop Forge, and in your relationship with Grandma, your children and grandchildren (and I'm sure cousings, nieces, nephews, etc.). You set so many examples for your family of what it means to be a good person, many of which are unattainable by the...

My sympathies to the Bowman family. My dad is Robert "Bobby" Lindell who died in 1987. I remember Mr. Bowman vividly through the eyes of a 15 year old and remember how well respected and valued he was at the Lindell Drop Forge. What a blessing that your family were all able to enjoy Mr. Bowman as the leader of your family for so many years. My sympathies to all of you.

Peace,
Robin Lindell Coe
Bobby's youngest daughter

Uncle Dick, I will miss you dearly. You always had a story to tell and were so upbeat and positive. I know my Dad is happy to have you in Heaven with him and cousin Rick.
Love you so very much, Cindy Harke Dockey

So sorry to hear of your loss Pat. My thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family during this difficult time.

Marilyn and family, I'm so sorry to hear of Dick's passing. We haven't seen you in so many years since we moved to Houghton Lake but remember you today if I seen you. May God bless you and your family.

Pat: So sorry to read of the passing of your father. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in your time of sorrow.

Grandpa- You were such a caring, loving, and sweet Grandpa and I will never forget you! I love you! You came to so many of my baseball games and did so much for all of us! I am glad that I got to tell you how much I loved you before the Lord took you. I am glad you are free from pain and in a wonderful place! RIP Grandpa! Love you- Paul Sawyers
