We Love you Winn and you will be missed.

Grandpa loved his great grandchildren. This is Jonathan and Grandpa Winn just spending some special time together three years ago.

After not being able to get back to sleep I just couldn't get Winn off my mind. Winn was Tim's dad and he past away yesterday afternoon. I just wanted to try and write somethings down and enjoy the memories I have of him. Hopefully these memories will make sense because they are all kind of jumbled in my mind.
First Winn was such a good son, husband, father, and grandpa. He loved his family so much and it showed with everything he did. We will love you Winn forever and know that you are in a better place now without pain and confusion.
Winn and Erma were always together. They would work together and play together and were as one. They would love to play table games and it seemed whenever we would come we would spend hours playing games. It was so much fun just to enjoy time together. I know that this will be a hard passing for Erma and just want her to know how much we love you and will keep you in our prayers.
Winn loved to go fishing with the boys in our family on their boys weekend and they would have the best time. Each of them would have a homemade sweatshirt and would wear them the whole weekend. They would go and enjoy one another (Yet it seemed that they never caught very many fish) just a lot of memories were made together and experiences that lasted a life time.
When his birthday would come around I would make his favorite carrot cake and he loved it. His eyes would get all excited and he sure did enjoy his birthday cake.
Winn was a worker. He would always be busy with some project and loved keeping busy. Later, when he wasn't able to do as much by himself he would follow Tim around and help where he could. Tim just love taking his dad to the hardware store and getting the materials for the job. Then they would stop by the ice cream store and enjoy a special treat. Then back to the house where they would work side by side and talk the whole time together. A really special time for both father and son.
I'm so glad that we were able to go to Alexander's Baptism for it was the last time we were able to spend time with Winn. We love you Winn and will miss you so much. Our fond memories of you will keep you with us throughout our lives.
Love Forever Jeanne
