Martha Fink Obituary

Martha "Marti" Fink

May 9, 1951 - Dec 11, 2024

Norwalk

Martha "Marti" Fink shuffled off this mortal coil Thursday, Dec. 11, 2024. A long-time resident of Norwalk, Marti also resided for a time in Amherst and Bucyrus. After graduating from Norwalk High School in 1969, Marti began working as a telephone operator for GTE, which turned into a 33-year-long career in the telephone industry and a passion for collecting vintage telephones.

Marti was a member of Norwalk Eagles and Norwalk Elks, as well as a long-time member of Antique Telephone Collectors Association. She enjoyed spending time with her sisters, going to estate sales, and boating on Lake Erie. Marti loved old movies and jazz music and was a very witty writer of poetry and letters. Her unique sense of humor could always be counted on for a quick retort and lively conversation.

Marti is survived by her sisters, Patricia Douglas, Debbie Landenberg, and her twin, Barb Asmus and spouse, Roger Asmus; and sister-in-law, Judy Fink; as well as several nieces and nephews including Mike Fink, Terri Fink Feyedelem, Becky Burr Ducat and Kellie Landenberg Pancost. She was preceded in death by her parents, Robert and Sara Fink; brother, Robert Fink; niece, Robyn Landenberg; and long-time friend, Patricia McCreedy.

A small private service for family and close friends will be at 12 p.m. Friday, Dec. 20, 2024, at Walker Eastman Heydinger Funeral Home in Norwalk. Graveside service will follow.

In lieu of flowers, please honor Marti's love of cats with a memorial contribution to Huron County Humane Society, 246 Woodlawn Ave in Norwalk or Stein Hospice in Sandusky.
