Gerald Charles Finnigan

Dad,

I'll miss you and Mom as you two were the "glue" that kept all of us connected to know we'd never be alone, and proud to be part of such a loving family. You also were my best friend in the world, my protector and advisor through good times and bad. You always had the magical solutions to problems and made me see the bright side, the right side to working them out. My heart is aching, for both you and Mom, but I feel that I had the best of the last months of your lives as your...

My Thoughts & Prayers are with you all at this time of great sadness & loss.
May God Bless you all!

I am very sorry for the loss of your dad. I was able to take care of him in the hospital. He had the greatest eyes. Even when he didn't feel like talking, he smiled with his eyes. I will always remember Jerry, and your mom too. I hope as time goes on, and knowing that they are togeather the pain will not hurt so much.

Jerry Finnigan was the eternal optimist. He could turn despair to hope, sadness to happiness, the seemingly impossible to possible! For me, he made California and San Jose State possible. He jump started my education and my career and even found needed work for both Nancy and I. Jerry was the best man at our wedding and he and Myra hosted our wedding reception at their Santa Clara home.

Nancy and Myra enjoyed a close relationship and shared the joys of having babies and the trials...

We were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Jerry. We have many fond memories of both your father and mother. These memories started on Easton Place (Saratoga, CA) as next door neighbors in 1963, included Incline Village and ended up in the Sacramento area. Jerry and Myra were tough competitors in bridge, fun in the snow, exciting to be with on their boat and just great to sit down toward the end to have a memorable conversation. They will definitely be missed by Carole and...

Dear Jerry Finnigan Family,
May God bless you all at this time of great loss...Jerry was one of my favorite uncles. My memories of being with him were always remembered with joy. He and Myra will be greatly missed! Love, Kathleen Finnigan-Frydenlund

Jerry Finnigan was not just my Dad, who guided and watched over me all the days of my life.

But he was also my dearest friend, who loved and laughed with me in good times, and consoled and encouraged me in bad.

He was a wonderful and gentle man who lived life to the fullest for himself, but who always placed his love and devotion to his family and friends above himself and everything else.

My heart is heavy with sadness at having lost him ... I miss him dearly.

I...
