Juanita Winger

April 29, 1933 — October 31, 2024

Crookston

Juanita Winger, 91, of Crookston, MN, passed away peacefully at the Villa St. Vincent on Thursday, October 31, 2024, with her loving family by her side. She was born in Ages, Kentucky on April 29, 1933, to her adoring parents, Jesse and Jerushia (Crider) Kinder. 

Juanita grew up in Kentucky, where she also attended school and met the love of her life, Kenneth Winger, who sadly passed away in 2016. The two were married in Harlan Kentucky on September 4, 1953, and gave birth to five children: Kenneth, Anna, David, Brenda, and Rodney. She believed in the Holiness Faith of the Ages Free Pentecostal Holiness Church where she was baptized later in her life. Juanita and Kenneth eventually ended up in Crookston where they made a life together and raised their children. Juanita dedicated her life to raising her children and making a home for her family, a home of warmth and love she basked her children in. 

Juanita loved reading, word search books, and her grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and of course, her pets. She was a woman of dignity and grace who raised her children with values and morals they will carry with them as they go forward in their lives. Juanita will also be missed at the Villa St. Vincent as she was known as a very sweet woman and will be missed by the staff who had the privilege of caring for her. 

May God Bless the Memory of Juanita Winger.
