Mr. Ordeneaux, Greg, Paula ,Michalyn and family. I was so sorry to hear that Mrs. Ordeneaux had gone on to see Roddy and our Lord in Heaven. He saw that see was getting tired and called her home. She was one of the sweetest ladies that I knew. She always had kind words and a big smile. Many good memories from 4-H, FFA and a good friend. My love and prayers to all of you as you say goodbye. Wow on the 72 years of marriage to a great man. Keep your memories close to your heart and remember how she loved all of you. God bless you in coming days.

What a very special person. Winkie was so admired by all of us at Dulles High School and she will be so sorely missed. All our love and sympathies go to Elmo, Paula, Greg, and the entire family who loved this great lady so much. Be strong in this hour of grief and the Lord Himself will bear you up.

Actually, for the first time l'm speechless. Ms. Winkie was always pleasant to be around. Never a harsh word out of her mouth. I will always think about her as a counselor & a wonderful woman, friend,& mother & grandmother to all the block kids that were always around. Our condolences to the family.. Love to all!!

The Ordeneaux family was blessed with 2 "Winkie's," one is my mom and the other is Aunt Winkie (Symbol). Aunt Winkie was one of the kindest and loving people I have even known. She dedicated her life to her family, especially Uncle Mo. She had more energy than any 10 people far younger than her. When we came in town from LA, we made sure we were hungry and thirsty, because she always insisted that you eat and drink something. She will be dearly missed by all of us "Ordeneaux's." You keep them straight up there in "the big house", Aunt Winkie. Love you and miss you.
