Obituary For Dale Finnen
Dale Finnen, resident of Grande Prairie, AB, passed away on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, at the Grande Prairie Regional Hospital, at the age of 75 years.
Dale was born on September 30, 1950, in Hythe, AB, to Marguerite and Keith Finnen. At a young age, Dale became a journeyman carpenter and quickly became exceptional at his trade. He spent the rest of his professional life creating true craftsmanship.
Dale enjoyed woodworking with his lathe. He also spent much time studying horse racing statistics, which he enthusiastically shared with others.
Dale will be sadly missed by his wife, Alice Finnen; daughters Alexi (Jose) Rivera and Kamille Finnen (Stephen Coulombe); grandchildren Alexi-Journey Rivera and Kamille Finnen (Hunter, Rogan, and Addison Pierog); siblings, nieces, and nephews; as well as other immediate and extended family and friends. Special thanks to family friends Al and Chris Ferris and Kurt Pierog for all the support over the years.
He was predeceased by his parents, Marguerite Finnen (née Matheson) and Keith Finnen.
No service will be held. A celebration of life will be at a later date.
Memorial donations may be made to the Canadian Lung Association (https://lungcancercanada.ca/) or the Grande Prairie Regional Hospital Foundation (https://gphospitalfoundation.ca/donate/).
