Mrs. Lindsey, Lisa, Bill, Vickey, and family - We are so sorry to hear the news about Mr. Lindsey. Growing up on Isle of Hope, he was one of the dads that we all looked up to. He could build anything, fix anything, and always had good advice for us "kids" if we were willing to listen. He was a generous person and a good friend to everyone. Praying for your family during this difficult time. Garr & Elizabeth Williams (Orlando, FL)
