To the Winfield family: May God comfort you at this time and may you have fond memories of Dr. Winfield, as I do when he was the organist and choir director at St. Francis Xavier Church in SE, Washington years ago. His music and gifted organ playing will live forever in my heart. He had a lovely smile and was a very nice person. I was pleasantly surprised when he came to my father's wake at Holy Redeemer Church in 2010. May Dr. Winfield rest in Peace. May God bless you all.

When he was alive, he NEVER referred to me as his "step daughter." I was his daughter. And my name is Allison Winfield Kalloo.
