Malishia Winkler

Malishia "Kaye" Winkler, 68, of Alexander, Arkansas went to be with the Lord October 2, 2019 at Saline Memorial Hospice. She was born December 23, 1950 in Coos Bay, Oregon to the late Virgil "V.O." and Charlene (Bryant) Monroe.
Kaye loved the Lord and was a member of New Beginnings Apostolic Church. She received her college degree and worked as a dietician. Her family was the most important thing to her and she loved spoiling her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Kaye was a "shopaholic" and enjoyed shopping for clothes, shoes, and purses. She liked being the center of attention and being spoiled by others.
Kaye leaves behind to cherish her memory her loving husband of fifty-one years, Ronnie Winkler of Alexander, Arkansas; three daughters: Ronda McDonald of Tulsa, Oklahoma, Yolanda Stanton and husband Robbie of Malvern, Arkansas, and Doll Dillon and husband James of West Palm Beach, Florida; five granddaughters: Tara Brown, Brianne Finley, Abby Stanton, Brittany Sullivan, and Lyndsey Sullivan; four great-grandchildren: Dawson Mays, Gavin Mays, Paislee Mays, and Zeke Dawson; four sisters: Pat Havard and husband Billy of Malvern, Arkansas, Brenda Grubbs and husband Scott of Bauxite, Arkansas, Joyce Monroe of Benton, Arkansas, and Diannia DiCicco of Benton, Arkansas; and many family members and friends who love Kaye and will miss her always.
