 Joe Finneman
Joe is Connie Kendall's
married
great-uncle and the uncle of June
Kendall.
Joe Finneman was a courier at Pearl Harbor at the time of
the attack on December seventh. As a sergeant in WWII, Joe saw combat
'island hopping' as a young man. While in the process of deserting his
unit, he rescued a group of children in New Guinea and was awarded a
Purple Heart and bravery medal, but refused them out of guilt.
Joe now runs Finneman's Market in Odyssey. He has no great desire to go
to church, insisting that they haven't changed since he was last there,
and on top of that thinks he is too old for God, though we occasionally
see Connie working on him to go to
church. However, he finally went to church after Connie convinced him.
