Such a wonderful man. My condolences to the Linnartz family.

Dick Linnartz was an angel sent to earth by God to communicate to us that God exists. Men don't come better than Dick. He will be remembered with gratitude and sorely missed by those of us he leaves behind.

My thoughts and prayers are with Dick's family. As a former City Hall employee I share in prior sentiments about what a generous, knowledgeable and welcoming person he was. I will miss his presence. Dori Wilson

Dick was a valued member of the Public Works Department second to none and performed terrific public service for Norwalk. As Mayor, I appointed Dick as the Acting Director of the DPW when a vacancy occurred and offered him the position on a permanent basis but he declined. I always valued his advice because his professional judgement was always well-informed and prudent. I join his family in celebrating Dick's outstanding professional career.

Dear friend, Lynne... Our most heartfelt condolences go out to you, Stacey, Jeremy and your family on Dick´s passing. Praying for your comfort and peace during this sorrowful time. Treasure all the loving memories of your tender years together. Your special love will always be with you in stories and in your quiet moments. Sending you much love and strength as you grieve your deep loss. May Dick forever Rest in Peace in God´s care.

Mr Linnartz, May you rest in peace. I miss to this day your presence at city hall. Your sense of fair play, ability to find common ground in any situation was incredible. You always started every conversation with a smile and answered any questions with a positive tone. You were one of a kind and I enjoyed dealing with you always. Mrs. Linnartz and family, Please accept my sincerest condolences on the passing of Mr Linnartz, he was well respected by many including myself. Absolute...
