Richard Finnan Obituary

Richard Joseph Finnan passed away on Monday, September 16, 2019 in Covington, LA at the age of 69. He was a selfless and unassuming man who quietly devoted his life to the service of his family. He will be remembered by many names - Dad, Rich, Richie, Unk, Nicodemus and St. Joseph - for his craftiness, ingenuity, humility and kindness. Richard was a native of New Orleans, a graduate of The Holy Cross High School and a veteran of the United States Air Force Reserve. He is survived by Maria Tumminello Finnan - his wife of 48 years filled with love and shared sacrifice - and their sons Matthew, Andrew and Patrick. His Irish wit, humor and teasing will be missed by his entire extended family. To honor Richard’s wishes, a private family graveside service is being held Thursday, September 19, 2019 at St. Louis Cemetery #3, 3421 Esplanade Ave., New Orleans, LA 70119. In his memory, donations may be made to woundedwarriorproject.org. Arrangements entrusted to Serenity Funeral Home, Covington, LA. Condolences and tributes can be posted at www.serenitycovington.com
