Graveside services for Charles Edward Winters, 81, of Fort Necessity, Louisiana, were held 2 pm Sunday, August 9, 2020, in Boeuf Prairie Methodist Church Cemetery with Rev. Hurby Hitt and Rev. Benton Moore officiating, under the direction of Gill First National Funeral Home.

Charles was born on Mother’s Day May 14, 1939, in Baskin, LA to the union of John Cornelius and Eliza Viola Reagan Winters at his maternal grandparents’ home and passed from this life on August 8, 2020, at Franklin Medical Center in Winnsboro after being diagnosed with COVID-19.

Charles was born with spastic paralysis and at the age of six began many years of surgeries and treatments at Shriner’s Hospital in Shreveport. Shriner’s Hospital held a very special place in his heart. He was a lifetime farmer, farming various crops through his lifetime, but his love was always cotton. After he retired, he always said he continued to farm in his dreams. Charles continued to work at Franklin Parish Sheriff’s Department after retiring from farming.

He is preceded in death by his parents; his wife Myra Thomas Winters and brother, John C. Winters, Jr., and wife Martha Winters; sister-in-law, Linda Winters, mother-in-law, Oneida Bonner; father-in-law, Wes Bonner and J. D. Thomas; brother-in-law Jerry Dee Thomas and wife Daisy, and sister-in-law Linda Kennedy Bonner.

Those left to cherish his memory include his two daughters, Myra Charmaine Winters and Michael Cummings of Monroe, LA and Jessica Winters Robbins and Mike Robbins of West Monroe, LA; two grandchildren, John William Robbins and Myra Lillian Claire Robbins; brother Dan Winters; faithful friend, Carolyn Givens Ferrington; and a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

Pallbearer will be Kevin Cobb, Terry Haring, Allen Hitt, Mark Hutto, James Moore, Dr. John Smith and Johnny Williams.

Honorary pallbearers will be the Deputies of Franklin Parish Sheriff’s Department.

Any planned memorials may be made to Shriner’s Hospital for Children, 3100 Samford Avenue, Shreveport, LA 71103 or Boeuf Prairie Methodist Church Cemetery Fund, c/o Vicky Haring, 12784 Hwy 4, Winnsboro, LA 71295.
