Walter Winters Obituary
Walter was born on January 21, 1940, in Brookville, PA, he was the son of John Winters and Ethel Burkett.
Walter was a 1958 graduate of Brookville Area High School. Over the years, he worked for Shaffer Buick, Goodwill, and Brookville Glove, where he formed lasting friendships and a strong work ethic. On April 1, 1972, Walter married the love of his life, Nancy Harris, in their beloved home in Corsica, PA. Together, they built a life filled with love and shared passions.
Walter had a deep appreciation for the simple joys in life - gardening vegetables and flowers, tending to his beloved tractors, fishing, and cheering on the Pittsburgh Pirates. He was also a devoted animal lover and leaves behind his three cherished cats: Smokey, Tommy, and Boots.
Though Walter was a man of quiet faith, he was methodist by belief. Walter was a member of the Heath Township Sportsman Club. Walter's warmth, generosity, and quiet strength will be dearly missed by all who knew him.
In addition to his wife, Walter is survived by two nieces: Tina and Johnna; along with several other nieces and nephews, who will always remember his kindness and gentle spirit.
