Phyllis WINNE Obituary

WINNE, Phyllis Mary
Phyllis Mary Winne, 64, of Essex, died Tuesday afternoon, March 5, 2013, at her sister's home in Richmond, NH following a period of declining health. She was born in Hartford on January 31, 1949, the daughter of Richard S. and Lillian M. (Nolin) Winne. She grew up in Essex and was a graduate of Mercy High School in Middletown. She went on to graduate from St. Anne's Hospital School of Nursing in 1970. Ms. Winne worked for 42 years as an RN in the Intensive Care Unit, Outpatient Surgery and Case Management at the Middlesex Hospital in Middletown. She was a communicant of Our Lady of Sorrows Church in Essex for many years. Ms. Winne enjoyed traveling with her trusty traveling companion, Maria Galanto, to different parts of the country including Grand Lake, Colorado which they visited many times. She also enjoyed collecting coins and dolls. Her greatest joy was spending time with friends and family, especially her great nieces and nephews. She always looked forward to her trips to New Hampshire and California to visit them. Her family remembers her as an unassuming listener and caregiver to all. She is survived by her sister Dale Randall of Richmond, NH; her nephews John Randall, and wife Meg, of Richmond, NH and Thomas Randall of Santa Ana, CA; her beloved great nieces and nephews Brett, Chris, Shannon, Eliza and Lydia.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Saturday, March 16, 2013, 11 a.m. at Our Lady of Sorrows Church, 14 Prospect St., Essex, CT 06426.

I remember Phyllis from Essex Elementary School, where we entered all the grades together. She was someone I loved to run into around town, lastly at Stop & Shop a year or so ago. She always looked the same to me and had a lovely welcoming smile. I cannot believe I will not see her again. She was a special person. Kathy Saunders Ely from Haddam CT formerly of Essex.

The scripture says, "In all things give thanks for this is the will of God concerning you". I thank God for giving me the opportunity to have known Phyllis Winne. She was a kind, compassionate, honest, sweet person, just the right mix to be a RN, but more than that she was my friend and prayer partner. Working with her for the last 9 years at Middlesex Hospital was indeed a joy. She loved to joke and play jokes, often times soliciting my assistance. Phyllis loved her family,her sister and nieces & nephews and her late Uncle Charlie, but her love and compassion extended to co-workers at Middlesex, especially me, for just a little over two weeks ago, she wanted me to pray for her and family and I asked her to pray for mine. It's good to know that love goes beyond the grave. Love ya Phyllis.

"To Phyllis's family" I was fortunate to have worked with Phyllis at Middlesex Hospital for a few years before she retired. She was a special person with a kind heart and compassionate soul. She would work thru the day always with a smile and could find humor in so many situations. I am a better person for having known her; she gave me many words of wisdom which I will carry and embrace in her memory. My deepest condolences to her family and loved ones.

I am shocked to hear of Phyllis' passing. I am truly sorry and our deepest sympathy goes to the whole family. She was a wonderful person. We lived next door to the Winnes from 1978-1991. They all were so wonderful, to our daughter, Jayna. I am just so saddened to hear about Phyllis. I would drive by the house once and a while and see her outside and even "Uncle Charlie" when he was alive, and stop and chat for a while. Always had a few good laughs. I still miss Kings Lane. Prayers to ALL of the family and her freinds

My dear cousin Phyllis, you will be missed. You touched many souls in your lifetime, binging them comfort and peace. You truly are an example of the old phrase: "only the good die young". I hope you find peace and joy in heaven.
