I was so sorry to hear about Dr "OZ" Finne's passing. He was greatly missed when he left WCCH and returned to Saltville. One of my best memories was the pipe tobacco, we could always tell if Dr Finne had been passing through. My thoughts and prayers with the Family.Former Lab Staffer at WCCH.

Dear Shirley and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about "Oz" (as we in X-Ray used to call him. He was a true Southern Doctor who cared about his patients and friends.
May God bless you and I'll keep you in my prayers.

Dearest Shirley & family,
I'm so sorry to hear of Dr. Finne's passing. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I cherish the memories of so many years ago when Dr. Finne took all of us "baby" nurses at WCCH under his wing and taught us so much. One of the fondest memories is the smell of his pipe tobacco as he got off the elevator to make rounds. What a great gentleman !!! May God comfort you and your family.

He was quite the character!! Shirley, I am so glad you both had the years together that you had! Just know he will be missed by friends and the community in general..I shall miss him greatly..even though we were not able to visit as much as we would have liked-- memories will always stay with us. Our prayers to the entire family...wishing you all comfort and love. Lissa & Raleigh
