To all of the Finch family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. May all your wonderful memories keep you strong.
You are truly a blessed family.I have heard so many great family stories and how close you all are to eachother. I enjoyed talking to your mom once or twice on the phone and several times via Maura when the family came to visit us in Savannah. I know that your mom/wife will be shining down on you from heaven, and she will always live on in your hearts.
May God Bless you all!
Love,
Marion & Nick
