Judy Wintter Obituary

Judy Virginia Wintter of Canton, GA went to be with her Lord on Tuesday, March 5, 2024. She was 82 years old.

Judy was born on February 4, 1942 in Fairfield, AL, growing up in Hueytown, AL. She was always active in activities that revolved around the school, Hueytown High School where she was a 1960 graduate. Church was always a big part of the Wintter family and Pleasant Ridge Baptist Church was her church home. A great woman of faith. A faith that never weakened right up to her passing.

After graduation from high school Judy took a job with Standard Oil of Kentucky in Birmingham, AL. Thirteen years later she moved to Louisville, KY with what later became Chevron. Only four years later she accepted a promotion to Accounting Supervisor in Concord, CA. with Chevron where she finished her working career in 1999 after 38 years with Chevron.

After retirement Judy "hit the road"! She traveled to many places overseas and all across the USA. She made Texas home in 2006 and in 2017 she moved to Canton, GA where she resided until her passing.

Judy is preceded in death by her parents, James Alexander Wintter and Clarissa Smith Wintter, her brother, James Allen Wintter. Judy is survived by her brother, Charles Weldon Wintter, nieces Wendy Wintter Griffin, Beth Wintter Pennington, Keri Elizabeth Wintter, and Leigh Wintter Prickett.

Family and friends are invited to attend a Celebration of Life service at Canton First Baptist Church, 1 Mission Point, Canton, GA 30114, on Saturday, April 27, 2024 at 2:00 PM with a reception to follow.

In lieu of flowers please consider making a donation to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

So sorry to hear of Judy's death. What a dear friend to my family for so long. My husband and I knew Judy since he began his Standard Oil career in Birmingham in the early sixties. They overlapped again at Kyso in Louisville. We then moved to Chevron East in New Jersey. We met up with Judy again at Chevron USA in California and at Bethel Baptist Church. Gerald, my husband, retired from Chevron in 1995 and died in July 2023. I believe he and Judy have met again in our forever home. My condolences to all of Judy's family.
