It is with great sadness that we're writing to let you know that Magda Fincke passed away on Friday, August 13th. She died at home surrounded by her family and close friends. Magda had a long, full life and was healthy and vital right up to the time of her final illness.
For many years, Magda was co-director and an art teacher at Buxton and her students and the Buxton community were the center of her life.
Plans for a memorial service will be announced by the family at a later date.
Memorial donations may be made to the Buxton School for the Benjamin G.C. and Magdalene J. Fincke Scholarship Fund, 291 South Street, Williamstown, MA 01267.
