It is with sadness that we announce the death our mother and grandmother, Virginia Rose Winkelmann.

Passed peacefully at Hospice Wellington on October 23, 2022. Predeceased by her husband, Linwood Edward Winkelmann and her son, Lynn Walker Winkelmann. Survived by her daughter, Nancy Ellun and granddaughters, Tamara Rose and Tanya Ellun.

Born May 21, 1929, in Maud, Oklahoma, she married in 1947 and moved to Sault Ste Marie, Ontario in 1960 with her husband and son. Virginia and Linwood worked together in their business in the tourism industry. Upon retirement they joined the International Executive Service Corps and assisted other entrepreneurs in this field in developing countries. Through the International Executive Service Corps, Virginia spent several years travelling to Kenya, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Ukraine, working on many volunteer projects. Virginia was among three finalists for the Frank Pace award from IESC for her endeavours. In return, she was happy to be able to travel globally and meet many people she counted among her friends. Virginia enjoyed spending time with her family and instilled in her children and grandchildren her love of reading and the importance of education.

A thank you as well to the wonderful PSWs and nurses who assisted her in her home until she went to Hospice Wellington where she received equally wonderful care until her passing.

Per her wishes, she has been cremated and has requested her ashes be spread in a private family ceremony. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in her memory to Medecins Sans Frontieres/Doctors Without Borders. www.msf.ca

Youth Killed At Seagraves

SEAGRAVES (Special) - Funeral services for a 17-year-old Seagraves youth, Kenneth Joe High, who was killed Saturday night in a freak accident one mile from here on "Graveyard Road", were slated for 3 p.m., today in the Appleton Church of Christ.

Burial will be in Seagraves Cemetery.

The youth, a driller's helper in the oilfields, was riding on the fender of a car driven by Maxine Palmer, 17, also of Seagraves, when the accident occurred about 10:30 p.m. Another youth, Milton Palmer, 16, Seagraves, was riding on the other front fender at the time, according to investigating highway patrolmen - the Gaines County sheriff's office and city officers.

They said the car, owned and ridden in by Bernie Kuhn, 21, Denver City, was traveling about 20 miles an hour when High apparently fell. A front wheel passed over his legs according to the report, and he was rolled up under the vehicle before it could be stopped. The youth, conscious and talking, was taken to Seagraves Hospital by an ambulance summoned by one of the companions. He died of internal injuries, officers said, about midnight. An investigation of the fatality was underway today.

The victim, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. B. High of Seagraves, was born June 4, 1937 in Seagraves. He attended public schools here.

Benton

A service celebrating the life of Zachary Edward Hendrix will be held on Monday, March 24, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. at Rose-Neath Funeral Home, 2201 Airline Drive, Bossier City, Louisiana. Officiating the service will be Buddy Cyrus.

"Zach" was born December 28, 1984 in Bossier City. As an active and animated child, Zach could always be found outdoors, often barefoot and without his mother's permission. He loved nature from an early age, and this passion continued as he grew into an avid hunter and fisherman.

He made friends easily and collected them from all walks of life. With his electric smile and quick wit, he never failed to conjure laughter all around him.

Beneath his strong exterior was a soulful and generous protector. A self-taught musician, he found comfort and joy picking his guitar. Always ready with a prank, a joke, and a bold sense of adventure, he will be deeply missed.

Zach is preceded in death by his parents, Tracy Hendrix and Ginger Bigby; his grandparents, Kay and "Dub" Hendrix and Barbara and Gerald Gibbs. He is survived by his wife, Christi Hendrix; his daughter, Kassidy Burton; his stepfather, Walter O. Bigby, Jr.; his siblings, Hayden Bigby and Whitney Hendrix; his niece and nephews, and several aunts and uncles.

Zelma L. Leslie
May 16, 1927 - February 8, 2018

Zelma Lois Crow Leslie was born in Marshall County, Oklahoma on May 16, 1927. She passed from this life on February 8, 2018 at the age of 90. She was a resident of CARE Nursing Facility, Early, Texas.

Mrs. Leslie was preceded in death by both of her parents, Claud Cecil Crow and Hester Jane Roberts Crow, her husband, Lloyd Kenneth Leslie, two sisters, Fannie May Crow and Vila Anderson. She is survived by two sons, Wendyl Keith Leslie and wife Carolyn Minson Leslie of Boerne, Texas, and Jerry Dean Leslie and wife Janet L'Roy Leslie of Brownwood, Texas. She also has five grandchildren: Keith Leslie and wife Pam Marshall Leslie of San Antonio, Texas; Dustin Leslie and wife Sarah Leslie of Boerne, Texas; and Brooke Leslie Anderson and husband, Curtis Anderson, of Sherwood, Oregon; Jeffrey Leslie and wife Tiffany Bradford Leslie of San Antonio; Jennifer Leslie Chen and husband Andy Chen of Mansfield, Texas. She has 19 great-grandchildren.

Mrs. Leslie was raised in and around Marshall County, Oklahoma. She attended school in Madill, Oklahoma and graduated high school from Russett High School. She met Lloyd in her high school years. Upon his return from World War II they would marry in 1946. Their first son, Wendyl, was born in 1947 and Jerry was born in 1948. She and Lloyd would reside in Ada, Oklahoma and raise their family there until 1962 when Lloyd would accept employment in Duncan, Oklahoma. Lloyd and Zelma would move to McAlester, Oklahoma for a few years, move to Garland, Texas to own and operate a Sonic Drive-In and then return McAlester to buy country property, build a new home and raise cattle. In time they would move to Wilson, Oklahoma to do the same there and then move to Ardmore, Oklahoma during retirement years.

But, being so far away from the rest of the family who resided in Texas, they would make other moves to be closer to the children and growing number of grandchildren and great-grandchildren. First in Utopia, Texas, then to Boerne, Texas. Aging and needing more support they would move to the Brown County, Texas area in 2005.

Mrs. Leslie, in addition to being a wonderful homemaker, seamstress, and cook, also worked in several of the above-mentioned locations in the Department of Public Safety, Licensing Division. She was not only very efficient in her performance but was very people-minded and gracious. She was loved by her co-workers and appreciated and enjoyed by the public.

She was a deeply religious person. She was a bible class teacher for many years and faithful in attendance and worship. She lived her life as a Christian, serving others. She was a devoted wife, a loving mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She was a member of the 4th and Stewart Church of Christ in Brownwood at the time of her death.

Mrs. Leslie was loved by her family. She took an interest in all the children and loved talking with them. She was famous in the family for her chicken and dumplings. Everything she cooked was from "scratch." You could always find her in the kitchen preparing everyone's favorite items in meals. Cherry pies made the Top Ten list every year.

Memorials may be sent to Cherokee Children's Home, Cherokee, Texas.
