My brother-in-law, Lynn, was always good to me. I knew him from the time I was knee high to him until I was with the family in his hospital room Friday.

He and I worked together, possibly my first job was helping him back before I started high school. And I wish I had a picture of their Opel stick shift that he used to ride me in when I was still in elementary school.

Family vacations together, cook outs, etc... e had some great times together. And this is how I want to remember him.
