Condolences
Remembering him as being one of the best union ironworkers, as his father was. Not afraid of heights. He liked hunting and fishing with our son; Chase Brinkley. If the fish weren't biting for everyone else, he'd be the one to catch one. I know your in a better place now. RIP
Chase and family, We're thinking about you during this sad time and keeping you in our thoughts and prayers. We love you. "Aunt Meddie" & family.
Sharon, I’m sorry to hear of your husbands passing. I’m praying God will give you peace and understanding during this difficult time. Love you very much!
