Melinda Finger, age 69, passed away on Tuesday, August 27, 2019 at Glazier Commons, Chelsea, from complications of multiple sclerosis.
Melinda Lee Hansen was born to Marge and Gordon Hansen on January 17, 1950 in Ann Arbor, Michigan. She earned a B.A. and a Masters of Social Work from the University of Michigan. Melinda married Craig Finger, on December 29, 1973.
Melinda's family was the centerpiece of her life. She and Craig raised three sons and celebrated their four grandchildren. Melinda dedicated herself to many types of volunteer work, but especially to teaching English as a Second Language to refugees in East Lansing. Melinda lived the life of the mind and was an avid reader. She was a people person who treasured her friendships. She took an active interest in politics and championed the rights and needs of less fortunate people. Melinda's life-long passion was being outdoors. Her happiest days were spent on Lake Michigan at Port Sheldon. Her last wish was a trip to see her lake and she sat in contemplation, communing with its wide, serene expanse.
Melinda is survived by her beloved husband, Donald Craig Finger of Chelsea; her son David (Allison Moore) of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania; her son Marc (Trisha Finger) of Okemos; her son Eric of East Lansing; her four grandchildren, Thomas Savage, Ella Finger, Donovan Finger, and Vivienne Finger; her father Gordon Hansen of Chelsea; her sister Amy (Tom Spies) of Corvallis, Oregon; her sister Julie (Bob Rooney) of Richland, Michigan; her sister Marcia Danemayer of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin; her six nephews and her niece, and her three grandnephews and her three grandnieces. She is predeceased by her mother, Marge Hansen (Margaret Whitney).
