I was so sorry I was unable to attend the services on Thursday for your Dad. I live on Seminary Lane in West Somers Park and took many walks with your dad. I loved spending time with him listening to him tell stories of his past, all about his family and his hobbies. He was such an interesting man. Please accept my sincere sympathy. I am really going to miss him.

My sincere condolences to Mrs.Link and family. Al played sax with my brother, father, uncle and I in our wedding band. He especially loved the Glen Miller arrangements my Uncle wrote. I also knew Al from my model A Ford club. He was such a joy to be around and will be missed. May God Bless him and his family. Jim Picciano

Mrs. Link and family...Please accept my sincere sympathy in the passing of "Al". I vividly recall his sense of humor whenever he visited my office. My warmest memory though, was when he drove his antique car for my daughter's wedding in 1988. Undoubtedly he will be missed by his family and friends but his life, a life well lived, will be remembered be all who knew him.
