Lisa Marie Fink's Obituary
Lisa Marie Fink, 54, has finished her race. She is no longer enduring pain or the struggles of this world but is healed and in the presence of her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Lisa was born in North Miami, Florida on September 25, 1970, to Loran Hardin and Judy (Hardin) Dinardo. After graduating from North Miami Beach Senior High, Lisa attended Miami- Dade Junior college and received an A.S. Degree in Business Administration. She began a career at Publix in the Miami Warehouse and was promoted to Marketing Director and transferred to the Lakeland Headquarters. She retired from Publix after 20 years to become a full-time mother and homemaker. Her greatest job and the one she took the most joy in was being a mom to Cole and Ruby, and loving wife to Chuck Fink, her husband of almost 22 years.
Lisa spent the past four years battling cancer with strength, grace, dignity, and an unbelievable amount of courage. After a life well lived for the Lord, Lisa was ushered into His presence as she passed away peacefully holding her husband’s hand on December 29, 2024, in Lakeland, Florida
Lisa was very active in her church and her children’s school. She learned to play the piano at an early age and loved hymns and modern worship music. Lisa absolutely loved crafting and was a skilled chalk artist. She enjoyed making handmade gifts and enjoyed receiving them. Lisa was an encourager, cheering on her friends in their daily lives and faithfully praying for them. Lisa read the entire Bible each year and encouraged others to do the same. She was an adventurer who enjoyed traveling and took several overseas mission trips through the years. Lisa earned her Personal Pilots License and went skydiving during her younger years.
Lisa is survived by her husband Chuck, son Cole, daughter Ruby, mother Judy Dinardo, siblings Phil Hardin, Mitch Hardin, Kevin Hardin, Clinton Hardin, and Lora Grabach. She also has three step siblings, Marc Dinardo, Debbie Dinardo and Donna Mozonski. She has many nieces, nephews and cousins that adore her.
She was predeceased by her father Loran Hardin, beloved Papa Al Dinardo, brother Anthony Wayne Hardin, and niece Heidi Dinardo.
Our lives on earth will never be the same. We will miss her light. The brightness she brought to a room, her wisdom, love, gentleness, and kindness will stay with us always
