Our thoughts and prayers are with the family, as well as all that knew and loved Winnie. I have very fond memories, as a child going to visit Winne and "the boys". Everyone I knew always spoke so fondly of her, especially my mother and her sisters and brothers, Virginia Lee Hill, Sammy Prince, Linda Weaver, Susie Henry and Cheryl Matthes. I remember visiting Cheryl when she lived with Winnie and all the fun we had at her house. I know she will surely be missed.
