We were so sad to see Stephen's message on Facebook. Mr. Finck is a huge piece of our lives on 29th Street, Ship Bottom. Always with Nettie and always with a big smile on his face. Always kind to our four daughters who grew up walking up and down 29th Street back and forth to and from the Periwinkle Cottage saying "Hi Mr. & Mrs. Finck" a million times a day. Rainer and I send our deepest condolences and lots of love to Mrs. Finck and the entire family. You were blessed with a beautiful marriage, a loving family and a wonderfully kind husband. We will keep you all in our prayers.
With love, Rainer & Erin Engenhart
