Dear Elaine, Diane and Warren: On behalf of the entire Finnegan family (your next-door West Roxbury neighbors for many years), please accept our most sincere sympathy on the occasion of your Dad's death. We are sure that there will be many cars to fix in heaven, and your Dad will head up the brigade of volunteers. What a nice man he was. We learned of his death too late to be able to attend visiting hours this morning, but please know that we hold in our hearts warm memories of your Dad, your Mom, and of the wonderful Palmeira family.
