Lindel was such a nice man. He was the first person I saw every morning drinking coffee at Plank Road Inn. He always made sure he would enough money to get Rosie a cup of coffee from McDonalds. I will always remeber him. Rosie and children you all are in my prayers.
To the Kennon family, you have suffered a lost of a man that had maybe had a rough exterior, but inside he was a gentle person and had a heart of gold. I knew Lindell from the coffee drinkers at Plank Road and then Shake and Steak. He talked often of his family and grandkids. He loved you all very much. May our prayers give you the strength to get through the days ahead.
My heart goes out to all of you. Keith is an amazing person, a great son is a reflection of an ever better father. Godspeed Mr. Kennon.
What a beautiful video tribute to a wonderful man. The pictures show all the love you share as a family. My thoughts and prayers are with your family during this time.
Julie and family, My heart breaks for all of you and will miss hearing "Hey Kid!" when I walk in your home. He was a great husband, dad and friend. I will miss him dearly.
We are so sorry for your loss. We will remember Lindell as a fine friend and client. May God comfort you and your family in this time of sadness. You will be in our thoughts and prayers. Sincerely Randy and Sharon {Randy's Barber Shop}

Dear Family, Our thoughts and prayers are with you. We always enjoyed his wonderful humor. Jim and Bev Dugal
Watching the video bought smiles to my face. Working with Lindell on the city council was challeging and fun. We had disagreements, but at the end of the day it was for the good of Farmington. One thing we could always agree on was the love of cars and anything associated with cars. Lindell was a good man and he will be missed. My condolences. Dan Combs
Although we have been neighbors for 7 years, I'm sorry to say that I didn't get to know either of you very well. I do know that Lindell would always smile and speak, anytime that I would see him out in your yard. I don't know of anyone who had a more upbeat attitude during treatment for cancer. He would say "Yup..I drive myself to the city every day for radiation treatments". That says a lot about him. May God comfort and bless you in this time of sorrow. Sincerely, Dee Owens
Keith and family, I am really sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
