Richmond, Kentucky - Annette Chandler Winter, age 90, Richmond, KY (formerly Jacksonville, Florida) died November 26, 2020 at the Hospice Compassionate Care Center in Richmond. She was a member of the Episcopal Church of Our Saviour in Mandarin, FL for decades and attended Church of Our Saviour in Richmond, KY.

Annette was born on December 10, 1929 in Mars Hill, North Carolina to Horace and Mabel Chandler. She graduated from the Women's College of the University of North Carolina in Greensboro, N.C., majoring in Spanish with a minor in French. She settled in Jacksonville, Florida with her husband for 45 years until his death in 2000. She was a teacher, spending the majority of her career teaching English at DuPont Junior High School. In 2016 she moved to Richmond, Ky and her son became her full-time caregiver.
Along with being a gifted pianist, many cherish Annette's hand-made sweaters and afghans.
She was a founding member of the "Knitwits" and always looked forward to their weekly gatherings. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
There will be a memorial service for her in Jacksonville at a later date.

Mrs Winter taught me first year French at John Gorrie Jr. High in Jacksonville Florida in 1960-61. She also taught Spanish - both with a definite southern accent. Now that I see she was from Mars Hill, I know where she got it as I have a summer home just north of there. She was a very kind and gracious lady. Teachers make such an imprint on our lives. Even though I am in my 70's I remember her clearly. Rest in peace.

Mrs. Winter was as though a teacher as they came. But, she also had a soft side, and she showed me much compassion. Even in the late 70s, she would not stand for bullies. Her room was a safe haven while she was in it, and she frequently let me come sit with her while waiting for a class or after school event. I will never ever forget her kindness, her support and and her love. Rest in peace dear lady. You are so very loved.

I have fond memories of Mrs. Winter. She was not only one of my favorite teachers but a great friend to our family. Great memories of families having cookouts in their backyard. We had some great conversations on Facebook after she moved to Kentucky. Heaven has gained a very sweet lady. Linda and Jimmy, I am so sorry for the loss of your Mother. She was such a sweet lady. Keeping your family in my prayers for comfort.
