Thomas "Axel" Gordon Link

Last year at our 50th class reunion it was sad to see how many of our classmates have already passed away. Time flies and the older I get the more I realize how important memories are to reflect on. In all the craziness in our world right now my prayer is that all of you will enjoy every day and give thanks for family and friends. More importantly my prayers for all of you are that you will accept the love Jesus has given us and invite him into your life so one day we can all have another...

Having 3 years since last writing, I remember Tom being in, was it Sports Illust. or some sport magazine, there was a photo of him probably in 5th grade or so. I have it somewhere, and I can't remember if it was hunting or fishing. Then I remember years later he got tangled up with an ice auger, and he got pretty messed up with that. Classmates may remember his 1964 Chevy Impala he had at graduation time, A shiny black beauty it was. Though I only saw him a few times over the next 40+ years,...

Knew him best in grade school, never saw him mad, a very talented sports figure. And as Kathy said, he had that certain smile. Rest in peace, my friend.

Axel, as my husband, Doug, called him, would stay at our farm house while hunting in the area. I never had the pleasure of meeting him, but Doug always enjoyed having him around and spoke very highly of him. God bless him and his family.

Its hard to forget someone who gave us so much to remember God Bless

The last time I saw Tom was in the parking lot at Wal-Mart. I heard a loud "Kathy" and he came running and gave me a hug. We talked for a while about the Class of '73. I'll always remember his sweet smile and warm heart. I'm just sad that he is gone and I didn't have a chance to see him again. My prayers are with the family. And I am reminded that when people come to your mind...give them a call. Life is short and every day is a gift from God.

Family & Friends of Axel We are thinking of you. We sure have a lot of stories & memories at Red Eye Resort God Bless! Linda, Sandy, Chad, & Dale

My prayers go out to all of the family He will be Missed. I fixed a clock for him a short time ago it was a great time to talk with him we had some good laughs.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
