Edward Walter Sink, Jr., 72, of Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina, formerly of North Haven, passed away peacefully on April 3 in his home. He was the loving husband of Linda (DellaCamera) Sink. He was born in New Haven on Oct. 6, 1946, son of the late Edward Walter Sink, Sr., and Catherine (Kalisciak) Sink.

He lived in the New Haven area until recently moving to North Carolina. Edward worked in sales and retired in 2015. He was an active member of the New Haven Gridiron Club for many years and an avid golfer who enjoyed the game, but more so, the camaraderie of friends.

Edward dedicated his life to his family. He treasured his wife Linda, who was the love of his life. He cherished his children, and adored his grandchildren, often cheering them on from the soccer sidelines.

He was the father of Sheryl (Sink) Steeger and Robert Steeger, and Edward Joseph “EJ” Sink and Sarah Sink; and was grandfather to William, Kylee, and Emma Steeger, and Ava, Abby, and Emma Sink.
