Thomas Finhert

Mike Curtis The Finherts were friends and neighbors to our family Tom and his family were very generous and thoughtful people My memory of Tom was riding in his truck down North Lake rd which was gravel sliding around corners and holding on hoping we weren’t going to crash and Tommy giggling the hole ride to the lake

We were a pair traveling around the circle on scooters having great conversations with our Cherokee neighbors. I’ll cherish adventures and great conversations. Jim & Mary Quinlan

I started first grade at the Pleasant Ridge rural school which was located next to the Finhert farm. We continued being classmates until we graduated from Blanchardville High School, Class of 1963. We were in Sunday School together and were confirmed together in 1959. Tom has always been the best friend. I loved his laugh.!! My sympathy.

Tom and Virginia (Johnson) consistently attended the annual Johnson Reunion at the Legion Hall in Blanchardville. Tom always had a smile to share and enjoyed card playing. A couple years ago the Johnson cousins started getting together for lunch every few weeks and Tom joined in with the old stories. We will miss him at our lunches. He so loved his daughter and granddaughters and offer our sympathy to them.

I agree with Richard Bredeson. Tom was a great friend as a neighbor, high school classmate, football team player, and a friend since then. I especially remember the Sunday afternoons in the fall playing tackle football in my yard and in the winter playing basketball in my hay loft with Tom, Arnie Martin, and my brother, Jim. I will miss meeting Tom for lunch when we traveled back to Madison and getting his class update calls.
