Jr. Edward Tunis Wintermute

Notes:

WESTERVILLE -- Edward T. Wintermute, 76, died Friday, March 21, 2008, at home after a long illness.

Ed had always said he had "5 Beautiful Girls."

He is survived by a loving wife of 54 plus years, Betty L. (Harris) Wintermute; two wonderful daughters, Dianna L. Wintermute of Dayton, and Debra K. Wintermute of Hilliard; two precious granddaughters, his pride and joy, Kaitlyn M. Duff and Shannon N. Duff, both of Hilliard. He is also survived by a brother, Jack E. and sister-in-law, Ruth Ann Wintermute of Mansfield, and two nieces, Judy Laubenthal and Karen (Jeff) Banks. Also survived by cousins and a host of good friends and neighbors; a special cousin, Richard L, Wintermute and special friends, Glenn and Barb Worner, Trevor and Cathy Roycroft, Ron and Barb Kerst and Jo Wilson.

God saw him getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put his arms around him and whispered "Come With Me." With tearful eyes we watched him, and saw him pass away. Although we loved him dearly, we could not make him stay. A golden heart stopped beating; hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
Per his request no flowers, no calling hours.

A memorial service is planned for Monday, March 24, 2008, at 1 p.m. with visitation one hour prior at the Hill Funeral Home, 220 S. State St., Westerville. The Rev. Tim Waggoner of the Grace Brethren Church officiating. Private interment at a later date.

Special thanks to his HomeReach Hospice Angels, especially Kellie Hanck, RN and Bernadette Woods, PCT for all the wonderful and loving care. Those who wish may contribute in his memory to Ohio Health Foundation, Riverside HomeReach Hospice, 3595 Olentangy River Rd., Columbus OH 43214.
