Al preceded her in death on July 10, 2018. Winn was proud of her career as a math and physical education teacher at Beecher Junior High and as the director of Native American Education in Mt. Morris. She will be remembered for making beautiful flower arrangements, hosting fabulous family Christmas parties, her talent as a seamstress, and her love of gardening, restoring antiques, and shelling.
