Obituary For David N. Linkes

August 30, 1960 - September 2, 2015

Linkes, David Norman, age 55, unexpectedly on Wednesday, September 2, 2015, of Brentwood. Beloved husband of Mary Ann (McAleer) Linkes. David was the middle child of nine, born to the late Herman and Dolores Linkes; survived by siblings Sandra, Nancy, Jim, Diane, Elaine, Judy Linkes, Linda (Greg) Mondry and Ron Linkes; uncle of Raymond (Mallory), Jessica and Justin Mondry, and Nicole and Kristina Linkes; great-uncle of Hayden Christopher; son-in-law of Frances and the late George McAleer; brother-in-law of Dan (Denise) McAleer. He leaves behind his cherished pets Katrina and Kendra, but looks forward to arriving at the Rainbow Bridge to reunite with all of his precious pets that have gone before. Dave was a driver for the Port Authority of Allegheny County and a former employee of Kaufmann's Bake Shop downtown. He was an avid sports fan, idolized Clint Eastwood, but above all, loved his wife, their home, his family, and tending to his flowers. May he rest in peace. Friends will be received at the John F.
