• I was always amazed by Finnur's upbeat and positive attitude during his illness. He always seemed more concerned about others than himself. He truly had a gift, he could sit down and talk with you and you would leave feeling like he was a close friend. Not many have that ability. Caroline and Jesse have suffered a tremendous loss and please know that you are in my thoughts. - Posted by: Laura Scherza ( ) on: Jan 03, 2013

• Sincere Sympathy extended to Finnur's family. I recall the day that Finnur shared his diagnosis with us (his co-workers) and how he in genuine "Finnur style" encouraged us to be hopeful of the prognosis. We shared many laughs, enjoyed his many stories and counted on his road condition reports in the winter months. A wonderful person! - Posted by: L. Doolan (Co-worker) on: Jan 02, 2013
