David Alan Link

David Alan Link, age 67, of Celina, Ohio passed away on Saturday, April 13, 2024, at his residence in Celina. He was born the son of the late Leonard and Esther (Homan) Link in Celina on October 24, 1956. He is survived by his three sons and daughters-in-law: Jeremy Link, Tyler (Mandy) Link, Dylan (Mackenzie) Link all of Celina. He is also survived by six grandchildren: Cole, Payton, Madilynn, Morgan, Chloe, Danielle; a brother and sister-in-law John (Patrice) Link of Tipp City and sister-in-law Judy Link of Arizona. In addition to his parents, David was preceded in death by his three brothers and sister-in-law: Tom Link, Jerry (June) Link and Len Link. David graduated from Celina High School. He then went on to earn his bachelor’s degree at the University of Tiffin. He proudly retired as the Vice President and CFO of Range Kleen Manufacturing in Lima after 25 years in 2012. David never faced a challenge he wasn’t determined to overcome. He was respected for his savvy intelligence, resilience, and coolness under pressure. He was loved for his authenticity, consistency, and boisterous laugh that always filled the room. Later in life, Dave got the most joy out of spending time with his sons and grandchildren, being with his best friends from 1st grade Jeff and Kathy and laughing with his big brother John any chance he could get. He enjoyed playing golf, reading, motorcycles, and traveling the world. He will always be remembered as the Missing Link. David will be dearly missed by the family, friends, and grandchildren he cherished and loved. A celebration of life and viewing will be held from 3:00 P.M. - 6:00 P.M. on Friday April 19, 2024 at the Lehman-Dzendzel Funeral Home in Celina.
