Mike Lindley

Gary Michael Lindley born December 20, 1972 in Fayetteville, Arkansas and died October 31, 2016 in Springfield, Missouri, where he had called home for more than 30 years. We can be comforted that he professed his faith in our heavenly father and one of his last posts was, “I know that I’m not perfect. I know sometimes I forget to pray. I have questioned my faith. I know Sometimes I lose my temper. But thank you for loving me unconditionally, and giving me another day to start over again.” God decided to call him home, and for those that knew him know he is now rapping with the angels! He had an infectious laugh and a sense of humor like no other. Mike loved making people laugh, smile and enjoy themselves no matter the circumstances.. He is survived by his father Gary Lindley; mother Vicki Lindley, Prairie Grove, Arkansas; sister Robyn Lindley; nephew Logan Hammond and Logan's father Michael Hammond, Republic, Missouri; his paternal grandmother Frances Ann Dorsa; his aunts and uncles Shelby Steven Lindley his wife Vicki, Kimberly Ann Whitfield her husband Bob, Deborah Carman her husband Jerry and many cousins, Shelby Salazar, Jay Carman wife Abby and their children, Carra Sawyer her husband Rick and their children, Jessie Jones and Larry Jones Jr. and many more aunts, uncles and cousins, too many to mention.
