Mr. Lindler was a dear sweet man. And a Great Mason! We will miss him dearly at the lodge. I dont think there was one thing he didn't know about the craft. My wife had the pleasure of meeting him at the annual banquet. He commented on her shoes and that tickled her. She really liked him. There are many great men in the lodge however we have lost one of the best. We will miss him. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you. God Bless you all.

To the Lindler family;
Mr. Lindler was our dads very best friend in this world. They have been friends for over 30 years. They were Masons and Shriners together. I remember the days when they would dress up in their Hillbilly clothes, climb onto that hideous Hillbilly car, and have
the BEST time in the parades. They have played pinocle every Fridays for years and argued over who could play better! He was the best[friend]and I know my dad will miss him VERY much. He always said "thats my old buddy Chuck"
They will play pinocle again! Our thoughts and prayers go out to you.
Penny Branton, Sherry Anderson, and Kristi Beeman, Trudy Hastings
