RAYMOND JOSEPH FINN March 3, 1927 May 8, 2013 It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of Raymond Finn on May 8, 2013 at Grace Hospital at the age of 86 years. Raymond was predeceased by his wife Elsie (2007) and brothers Carl and Gerald. He will be lovingly remembered by his only daughter Darlene (Allen) Palmer, sisters Helen and Mary, brother James (Joan) of Ontario and many nieces and nephews. Raymond was a longtime resident of Transcona with great neighbours (Park Circle and Kern Dr.). He retired as a locomotive engineer for C.N.R in 1986. Raymond enjoyed golfing and the many friends he made at Elmhurst Golf and Country Club. Mom and Dad made many trips to Destin, Florida with their fellow "Snowbird" friends. A special thank you to Marylou and the staff on the 10th floor at Parkview for their care of Dad. A private family interment has been held. An Irish Blessing- May the road rise to meet you, May the wind be always at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your fields And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand. Amen. Funeral Arrangements in Care of Wheeler Funeral Home, Cemetery & Crematorium 1800 Day Street 224-1525
