Memory calls me back to the days of Winford, Nelle, Dee Dee, and Jeff at Cyrus Creek. I hear him preaching and singing. What a gifted man he was. It is good to know that he is healed. His mind is clear and body is whole. Looking forward to the reunion.

Nellie and Family:
I found tears in my eyes after reading Wyn's obituary. Though I had never met him I had heard so much about him from Vicki. She loved Wyn and values the time she spent with him at the Nursing Facility working puzzles. I'm sure Wyn left so many memories for his family. Your family was blessed to have him. May God take care of you in the days and weeks ahead. Trust in God and hold on to those memories.
I doubt that Dick and I will be able to attend the funeral. Please know that I am praying for you.
In Christ
Diane Hood

Winfred was not only my Pastor ,he was my friend ….we had many conversations….I told him one time that only 2 people in my life would choke me up to the point I could not swallow because of a lump in my throat …my own Dad ,when I d do something that disappointied him …..and you Winfred when you told me you were resigning from Our church …..I got so choked I couldn’t even speak ….I loved you and your sweet wife ….I’ll always remember our trip to Israel….so much laughter….good memories…..and my friend. I know you have probably done a triple jump of excitement as you met Jesus face to face ,and he says to you ,WELL DONE THOU GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT……we will meet again my friend ….
