Juanita Anna Finn was born February 26, 1939 in Belle Forche, SD the daughter of William Eldridge and Rae Anna Lida May (Gullion) Finn. She was baptized into the Christian faith. She attended school in Belle Forche and during Juanita's teenage years, the family moved to the state of Washington.

In 1980, Hon and Carl were divorced at which time she and Tina moved back to Washington. In 1993, Hon moved to Minnesota to be closer to her son, Butch and in 2012 made her home in Oklee. Hon was blessed for the past few years to be surrounded and lovingly cared for by her family.

Hon loved spending time with her pets including cats but especially her chihuahua's. In her younger years, Hon enjoyed crocheting and listening to her music.
