Lindy was born April 25, 1948 at the family farm where he grew up until joining the Navy in 1966 and served on the Shio Or Lec, then transferring to the Brinkley Bass until returning home in 1969. Lindy was proud to own his own roofing company and joining Local Roofers #20. He enjoyed playing Hand & Foot with friends and family especially when he would win.
