WINTERS, DAVID WAYNE 
November 9, 1955 – December 26, 2013

David Wayne Winters, 58, died in Morgan City on December 26, 2013 due to a 
lengthy illness.

He was born in Morgan City, LA to Carroll and Florence Beadle. 

After his mother remarried, David took the name Winters from his loving step-
father, Jay. 
In 1974, he married his true love, Sheila Buford. Together, they had two sons, 
Daniel and Matthew.

David was an electrician by trade, but could work on just about anything with a 
motor or engine. Anytime someone called for help, David was there. He also 
loved to fish, being in his boat made him feel free. It was a known fact that 
fishing with his sons was one of his greatest joys. David taught his sons to 
enjoy nature as much as he himself did. Most days David could be found 
tinkering around in his shed and hanging out with his grandson, Kaden. Patient, 
kind, loving, generous but firm, David was all of that and so much more. A 
unique and special individual, he will always be cherished and remembered.

David is survived by his wife of 39 years, Sheila Buford Winters; his eldest 
son, Daniel and his wife, Shane, and their children, Braden, Mamie, Isabelle, 
Daniel Jr., Alicia, Elizabeth, Johnathan, Caroline, and Thomas David Winters; 
his youngest son, Matthew and his son, Kaden Winters; his mother, Florence 
Kober Winters; his two sisters, Cassie Swain and Elizabeth "Bubbles" Racca; a 
brother, Robert Jay Winters; a special niece, Amber Komoroski; a his step 
mother, Elizabeth Broussard Harris; and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins.

David was preceded in death by his fathers, Henry Jay Winters and Carroll Adam 
Beadle; his maternal grandparents, Henry and Helen Kober; his paternal, Edward 
and Edna Beadle; a maternal uncle, Wayne Kober; and paternal aunts and uncles, 
Hilda, Winifred, Edna, Doris, John, Ethel, and Thomas Beadle.

The family would like to express their heartfelt thanks to Dr. Albert, Dr. 
Prejeant, and the nurses and staff of the ICU at Teche Regional Medical Center 
for showing such care to David during his stay there.

The family requests that visitation be observed Monday, December 30, 2013 from 
10am until time of dismissal at St. Stephens Catholic Church Hall in Berwick.
A Mass of Christian burial will take place Monday, December 30th at 3pm at St. 
Stephens Catholic Church in Berwick 

with David being laid to rest in the Morgan City Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers the family requests that donations be made to assist in the 
accumulation of hospital and funeral expenses. Donations can be forwarded to
