Uncle Lin was a great man whose light shines amongst many that knew him. Lin, you may have not thought Vince & I were listening to you as kids when you spoke jewels of knowledge into our lives, but we were and i will never forget "our stories" with you. You were the epitome of a great man, father & provider. Your earthly purpose has been served, now it's time for you to join my aunt Betty in eternal life ❤️. You will be missed, but always in my heart. Love Brina ~~~ Detroit MI
