Dear Finlay Family,
My uncle Carl and aunt Mary were very positive influences on my life. I admired them both and they were so nice to be around. Carl was so industrious, independent, brave, and generous. He was truly a great, respected man.

Family was very important to Uncle Carl. Not just his immediate family of Mary and the kids and the grandkids and the great grandkids, but his nephews, nieces, in-laws and beyond. He always made an effort to see us and stay in touch. I will remember our conversatins, his laugh, his singing and that lilt in his voice. We will all miss him very much. We wish we could be there with you, but know that you are all in our thoughts.

Condolence from Brian & Kate Stokes (O’Donnell) on October 1st, 2017 7:29 pm

Dear Marianne, Cathy, Frances, Michael and Peter,

Our hearts and prayers go out to all of you during this very sad time. This was a shock to hear that Mr. Finlay had passed away. During our walks and bike rides around the sub, we would always meet up with Mr. Finlay and chat for a long while. It was great speaking with him about every day events around the area and discovering things we were not aware of. We will miss our talks since moving from the area but cherish those memories of Wildfield he shared. He will be missed.

Condolence from Pat, Chris, Laura, and Nola on October 2nd, 2017 7:25 am

Our sincere condolences to your family.

Markey family

Condolence from Patrick Cassin on October 11th, 2017 9:19 am

He always greeted me by phone or in person with humourous stories, we shall miss him. We had not known he passed till today Nov 8th. M,y prayers to you all for comfort and strength through this sorrowful time from Maureen Kowal
