Aunt Ding, you will be missed. You were the last of the Winn's to survive and kept the past memories clear to us all. Even though I am in Florida you have always been in my thoughts and prayers. I will miss you dearly as will the rest of the family. Thank You for the memories. Love Joanie

"Ding" was our wonderful neighbor for 40 years. She was a very thoughtful person and always kind to our children, and we were very sorry to hear of her death.
