David Winer

Dean Winer was the best mentor I ever had, and I've had my fair share. I graduated class of '93. Trinity's misogyny was rampant in the student culture and with some of the old guard professors. Dean Winer was my champion, my confidant, my advisor, and my cheer leader. I've never felt so believed in as I did by him. He empower me. He valued my opinion. He amplified my voice. He supported my creative academic endeavors. He was a generous remarkable Dean and man, and a very special person to me....

I last saw Dave (my former prof at Trinity College, I am class of '74) in the early 2000s, when I had a nice visit when my daughter was applying to college. Unfortunately I failed to keep up after that, and I just found out today he had passed. He was such a greater teacher, and kind person. I will cherish my memories of him. My condolences to the family.

So sorry for your loss. My memories of Dave are very long lasting. Freddi Poe

Dear Judy and family, I had the good fortune to know Dave from my time as library director in Old Lyme. He was an outstanding trustee, great boss, mentor and friend to me and others on the staff. I could always count on his wisdom, humor and kindness while working together to provide the best for the community. I continue to feel gratitude for having benefitted from knowing him. My sincere condolences to you and the Winer family.

Dear Judy, I send sympathies and love to you and yours. David´s presence in our Old Lyme lives was a treasure. His gentle but powerful, kind intellect could move mountains. Being with David meant smiling a little more, thinking a little harder and doing a little extra for the better.
