Aileen and family - We were sorry to hear of the passing of your Bob - our Dr. Winship. That's what our children (now adults) always called him. We started coming to Winships Pharmacy when we moved to Florida in 1972. What a kind man! - Ione and Gary Wiren - Trace, Paige, Bryn, and Dane

So sadden by the news that such a great and wonderful man had passed. I use to run around Winship's Pharmacy since I was a toddler. My family and the Winship family was very close. We spent many holiday's and weekends together. I loved our Christmas party's the best. Winnie(what I called him) would break out his saxophone. Our family's did so much together. Winnie and his wife Eileen are also my girl's Godparent's. Robert Winship was such a great man and he will truly be missed. Sending my love to the Winship family.
