Not sure what to say?

Mr. Link was one of my teachers at Norwood Grade School. So sorry to hear of his passing

Dr and Mrs Freesmeier

Missed coming to meet this man's family- I am sure he was proud of you all! He was the best educator I have ever known. It was no guess that he supported his staff! We at CCS could not have asked for a better person to lead us through some difficult times. We will keep you all in our prayers- Dr Dan and Ruth Freesmeier

I am very saddened to hear this news. I will be praying for his family.

Kelley, Brian, Marsha, and family,

Our friendship was brief, just the last few years. During workouts at Golds.

It was clear the first time I met John, that he had a large compassionate and caring heart for all. The challenges he faced, with great courage, could never diminish in the slightest his gentle compassion for others.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.

Thoughts and prayers, John will be greatly missed

My condolences to the entire Link family. I have so many fond memories of John growing up and am sorry to hear of his passing.

To me I'll always remember him as Mr Link. He was my Pleasant Valley 7th grade teacher, PE teacher & coach. I think about him all the time. I remember him keeping his paddle by the door & that's all it took for me, total intimidation, lol. I remember getting swats from most of the teachers but wasn't interested in getting one from him. He was an awesome teacher & coach, he pushed us to succeed. He will be missed by many including myself.

He was a great principal at PV! Class of '93

Brian and family, so sorry for your loss.
