Joe Burton Linker III

Hard to believe it´s been 10 years since my brother died. He´s missed so much like his grandchild, his Parents passing....and he is surely missed by his wife and son. Prayers go out to his family.

Joe was a friend and high school classmate of mine at VES. I was shocked to hear of his death. There is nothing that anyone can say that will heal your heart.

I just heard about Dr. Linker's death, and am very sorry we lost such a dedicated doctor so young. Condolences to his family and friends from a long term patient.

Dr. Linker was my doctor from the onset of my diagnosis and treatment. He was brilliant and very caring. He was very honest and forthright. May God bless his family. I will remember the lessons learned from him.

Joe was my older brother, I have been so uplifted by all the amazing things both patients and fellow co-workers and fellow tennis, running, and hiking friends have shared with us at this trying time of his untimely death. He was a most loving and caring brother. He was always there as my medical consultant, as my brilliant brother, and as a dear thoughtful and caring brother. I will continue to care for his wife and son as I promised him when he told me that he had brain cancer 18 months...

He was a great doctor for me personally, I can't imagine how I would have navigated rheumatoid arthritis all these years without him. He was an amazingly caring and kind doctor to my children. What a loss for his family and his patients.
