Solomon Fink, 83, of Lovell, Wyoming passed away on July 30 after a short, brave battle with cancer. He was born on February 13, 1916 in Kane, Wyoming to John D. and Emilie Fink.
On September 3, 1939, he married Mary Laber and together they had five children. Sol was a lifelong resident of Lovell and was a member of St. John's Lutheran Church, serving as financial secretary for many years. He co-owned and operated the Highland Grocery and Locker Plant for 42 years, retiring in 1982.
Sol enjoyed bowling, fishing, pitching horseshoes, reading, jigsaw puzzles, and yard work, but most of all, he enjoyed time with his family. He was a very hard-working, loving, and generous husband, dad, and grandpa and he will be greatly missed.
Sol was preceded in death by his parents and a grandson, Brian. He is survived by his wife of 59 years, Mary; five children, Doris (Joe) Rhoads of Farmington, UT, Leroy (Joni) Fink of Lovell, Nancy (Roy) Oliver of Billings, MT, Rodney Fink of Buffalo, WY, and Tom (Anna) Fink of Lovell; eight grandchildren, Todd Rhoads, Debbie Citte, Sheri Tingey, Susie Wilkerson, Jennifer Simons, and Cole, Ely, and Kiana Fink; two great-grandchildren, Natasha and Jordyn; seven brothers, John Carl, Gottlieb, Daniel, Willie, Alfred, and Emil; and two sisters, Marie Doerr and Bertha Gernant.
Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, August 3 at St. John's Lutheran Church in Lovell. Burial will be in the Lovell Cemetery. Memorials can be made to the Lutheran Hour Ministries.
