My life long neighbors and friends, the Linscotts!! Dot, Craig and Cindy ---- Our families have so many great memories to carry us on. My brothers and Mike were about as close as friends could be. The stories I've heard are incredible and some quite unbelievable, but true. Mike will be greatly missed by me and to all who knew him. I'm sure my brothers and Mike are all together once again.
