Not sure what to say?

Rabbi Lincoln was an inspiration to our young family at Park Avenue Synagogue. He married us, officiated several occasions for us, was a driving force behind my daughter´s bat mitzvah, gave us hours of perspective, kindness, guidance, wisdom, and was simply adored. He will live on in my heart always. A great man. Thank you,

We remember Rabbi Lincoln fondly as a neighbor at 993 Park Avenue and as congregants at Park Avenue Synagogue. Our thoughts are with Sara, Simon and Jonathan and their families.

My condolences to the families. Carol Bernstein

Rabbi Lincoln had a profound and lasting impression on me when I was an early adolescent in Kansas City. He lived in a sketchy neighborhood, so a friend and I walked him home from shul on Friday nights. He was a very special person and understood how to reach every Jew through his wisdom and sensitivity. I´m a better person to have known him.

My sincere condolences to Sara, Simon, Jonathan and their families, Rabbi Lincoln was a great leader, speaker, teacher, neighbor and friend to me and my family. May his memory be a blessing.

Sending our sincere condolences to Sara, Simon, Jonathan and their families. Rabbi David remembered with great affection and memories of very special times spent together and with my dearest cousin Susan. Rest peacefully. Karen and Leon (LEEDS UK)
