We met this sweet man and his wife on a Holland American cruise in December and instantly felt like we had known them for a long time. We spent many hours just talking and laughing on this cruise. Lynroy and Jack instantly bonded and hung out on the private island in the Bahamas.
We want to extend our deepest condolences to Melonie and Family.

To Melonie, I am very sorry for your loss. We will all remember how gentle and caring Lynroy was. He will forever remain in our prayers and thoughts and definitely in all of our hearts. No number of sympathetic condolences could ever possibly amount to the great loss we have all suffered. Lynroy will never be forgotten, the memories you have had with him will always be there. I am deeply sorry and we will all miss him.
To Melonie, we are all heartbroken over losing one of our best friends. We enjoyed our travels, get togethers, dinners, poolside memories, fishing trips and many more fun activities we all had together. Lynroy will be remembered in so many ways. I’m sure we will all be together at some point, continuing our travels. Sayonara, our good friend.
My condolences to the family.
I will miss you Lynroy, my rock. Work hasn’t been the same without you.
My deepest sympathies to Mel, David, and family during this most difficult time.
To the family and especially his wife. Sorry for your loss. Lynroy will never be forgotten he was a funny caring person. RIP.
Lynroy spent his life looking for happiness. He would quietly celebrate little delights, here and there, where ever he could find them. May he fully experience, in perfection, the peace and joy that he wished to share with everyone in life.
Melonie, David, his dedication and affection for both of you was apparent every day at work – in conversation, pictures, stories he shared. Please accept my sympathy and prayers.
Melonie, I am so sorry for your loss. It is hard to lose someone you care deeply about. It sounds like you have many beautiful memories to help you throughout this painfull time.
To Melonie, David and Family, We are so sorry for your loss. Lynroy was one of a kind! We will miss his smile, his twinkle in the eyes and his quick jokes and puns. He was a very happy, steady force here at the hospital and those of us who knew him, will never forget him! Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this difficult time. He will be missed.
Lynroy was a great man condolences to the Brade family.
It’s a very sad day for all who knew Lynroy.
God is lucky to have such an amazing man by his side.
Rest in Piece buddy see you on the other side.
My deepest sympathy to Melonie and family.
Lynroy may be gone, but he will never be forgotten. This kind, lovable man touched all those he came in contact with. Very few people have the aura that Lyroy had and if this world were full of Lynroys it would be a much kinder place for us all.
My condolences to Melonie and the Brade Family.
I remember Lynroy as a dignified, friendly, and caring man. He always had a smile for you. He taught me to be a better, more respectful person through his example. His family was never far from his thoughts and he was always happy to share stories about football or home life. I am glad I had an opportunity to know him, sad I didn’t take better advantage of his time here.
Sincere condolences to the Brade Family.
Melonie I’m so sorry. Our hearts are with you.
Lynroy was always a bright spot to my day. I enjoyed his lunch time philosophy and his ever present smile. He is missed.
Melonie you gave Lynroy so much love and fun. You made his life complete! Joe and I loved the both of you from the start.
You were both blessed to have a wonderful marriage and life together.
Joe always like to make him laugh. I can hear him bellow when I think of him.
