Hard to believe that a year has gone by since your passing. Your void will never be filled but we are encouraged that we have memories to last a lifetime.

Sending love and prayers to Joy, Brian, Deborah, Jamile and family

My heart is broken amongst the many broken hearts and I am moved beyond words. What a blessing it was to know such a wonderful soul. I will certainly miss the chats and laughs we shared and that special calming voice. He was truly "one of a kind" and the angels are rejoicing as they welcome him home. Sleep well my friend!!!
I had the great fortune to meet Winston at GSA when I volunteered to mentor in a local DC high school with the ACE Mentor Program. Winston was the lead mentor and served in this volunteer role giving back to his community for many years. Winston was a major contributor to making GSA a great place to work. He always extended a great smile and helping hand to others. I thank his family for wrapping him in love every day so he could venture into the world and share it with us. Rest in peace kind soul.
These were Winston’s words to me in my time of grief some years ago.

“People we love are never truly gone if we keep their memory alive in our Hearts”

Winston's Memory is Alive in my heart.

... Cooking on the hotplate on the window of Slow Hall a Howard University Dormitory
... The long walk from Slow Hall to the dreaded first year calculus III finals
... Sleepless nights of studying for exams at Chapin street
... After graduation numerous visits to my house and me to his
... His joyful speech a Joy's 70th Birthday celebration
... Being chauffeur driven by him to Philadelphia for the Penn Relays

Just a few of the numerous memories I have of Winston and the over 30 years of friendship we shared.

May Gods perpetual light shine on you Winston
Rest in peace.

My heart goes out to the Wrig…
My heart goes out to the Wright Family. Winston has been a great mentor to me. I appreciate all the advise and life conversations we had. I am forever grateful for guidance. I will miss his random phone calls to talk about trips and vacations.
Joy,
I am praying that God will continue to be with and your family. My the peace and serenity that can only come from God during this time of grieving remain with you and your family.

Love you all and God bless you always.
