"Tribute" is a noun, not a verb!
The best tribute to pay him would be to finish his incomplete work.
"Job" doesn't really work for me in that sentence. You can use "work" if the person you're talking about worked in science, the humanities, academia ... etc. Otherwise, "project" may also work in your sentence.

AnonymousThe best way to tribute himNo. You want "The best way to honor him" or "The best way to honor his memory", supposing he has died.
Anonymous is to finish his incomplete job ."is to finish his work" is enough. If it needs to be finished, then of course it's incomplete.
