Robert Allan Winfrey entered this world August 24, 1943, and bid farewell March 13, 2023.
He was preceded in death by his brother, M.B.Winfrey Jr. and his parents, Matt and Jeannette Winfrey. He is survived by his sister, Carolyn Keller; his niece, Karen Ellis and her son, Alex Tracoma; his niece, Krista Bayer (George) and their daughter, Eva. He was quietly proud of his service as a Green Beret in the Special Forces during Vietnam, where he served two tours and earned a Purple Heart. There will be a gathering of friends to be announced where people can share their memories. Special thanks to the staff at Sunrise of Bon Air, Heritage Oaks, and Beaufont Healthcare and Rehab for their care and sharing in the laughter he always brought. What a blessing God gave us.
Mr. Winfrey was such a kind -hearted man with lots of love and laughter. He would offer his help with fixing cars or loaning you his navy blue F-250 truck. When working the evening shift at the Heritage Oaks he would great us with a goody bag full of snacks and a drink. His favorite food was Lilton’s bologna burger and BBQ sandwich. It’s was sad to see him move from the Heritage Oaks. He was surrounded by LOVE there! I am so glad to have visited him one last time at Sunrise two weeks ago, and of course he was talking junk and laughing. Rest in heaven Mr Winfrey. We Love You and you will never be forgotten. 🙏🏼❤🙏🏼
