With heavy hearts, we announce the death of Maureen K. Finkelstein (San Diego, California), who passed away on January 14, 2026 at the age of 86. Family and friends are welcome to send flowers or leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
She was loved and cherished by many people including: her parents, Margaret Fox Austin Beades and Thomas Anthony; her niece Maureen; her sisters, Patricia and Christine; her uncle Tommie; her brother Sean (Maureen); her cousins, Colette Austin and Mae Geelan; her daughters, Virginia Ann, Rose Mary, Eileen Margaret and Sheila Marie; her grandchildren, Mariah Rose Bice, Matthew James, Anneliese "Jean" Peerbolte, Ronan and Kelsey Kiernan-Johnson; her friend Slainte; Kendall Jackson Chardonnay, Harvey, Cabernet Sauvignon and Maureen.
During the pandemic, some theretofore unknown neighborhood folk offered her a shot of tequila on one such walk; always one to say yes to life, Maureen graciously accepted the offer and raised her reposado to her new friends with a heartfelt Slainte.
