Winnie was a friend from day one. I worked with her the better part of 18 years at ADH. She was patient and kind, did her job and did it well. She didn’t laugh often, but when she did, you had to laugh too. My sincere condolences to her family.

I cannot think that a finer Christian woman than Winnie Faye ever lived. No doubt she was welcomed into her eternal home and heard the words, “Well done my good and faithful servant.†There is great rejoicing that she is reunited with her family and friends who have gone before, but great sadness for those who will miss her earthly presence. Prayers for all.

Winnie was a special friend. She lived with us for a few months after the Clinton tornado damaged the roof of her apartment building. She also became a special friend to our two granddaughters.
