Born in Emmorton, MD he was the son of the late Oscar and Maude (Reedy) Mink and husband to the late Della (Howard) Mink.</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">One of eleven children (9 boys and 2 girls), Mr. Mink was raised on a dairy farm located on North Bend Road, Rocks, MD which is now Jarrettsville. During his long and joyful life, Mr. Mink donned many different hats. He loved everything to do with farming – tractors and fields, barns filled with animals, and good country cooking. After farming, he served his country in the Air Force’s Strategic Air Command, stationed in both Kansas and Tule Greenland. After the service, he made his living as a crackerjack mechanic for Black & Decker, retiring after over 40 years on the job.</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">But most of all, Mr. Mink was a loving son, brother, husband to his wife Della, and father to his four children. His strength, kindness and unfailing sense of humor will be sorely missed. </span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p> <p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif;">Mr. Mink is survived by his children, John R.
