She met her husband Jack (Giacamo) San Felice in August 1963 and they were married on April 25, 1964 at the Riverdale Presbyterian Church.  They lived in three different apartments before moving to College Park, Upper Marlboro and Huntingtown, Maryland. Winnie was a homemaker but had several jobs over the years, including day care, doctor’s offices, and mortgage underwriter.  But she enjoyed taking care of her children and grandchildren mostly.  Jack served as a police officer in Washington, DC and Prince Georges County Maryland until his retirement in 1992, when they moved to Arizona. Winnie and Jack went on many exciting adventures in Arizona. They biked, hiked, 4-wheeled, and rode horseback in and around Arizona’s famous Superstition Mountains and elsewhere in the state.

They lived in various communities around the Phoenix area finally settling in Mesa, Arizona.

We will love you forever!
