Taken from Winter's son's wall.

All friends and family I appreciate your kind words and support for my mother and her courageous battle against cancer. She passed away peacefully a few moments ago with my sister by her side. I know she had many people who loved and cared dearly for her and she wanted to let them know. My mom was the strongest person I ever knew and taught me what unconditional love is. I know she'll always be with me but I'll never stop missing her. I'll always love you with all my heart. — with Winter Egbers and 3 others.

Godspeed my friend. I'll miss you.

Fly with the eagles dear Winter.

Marie who loves kitties

    So very, very sad.

    I'm heartbroken.

    Winter was SO SO stong; she fought and won so many times. 

    May her family be blessed at this time. 

    Winter, we will remember you for your strength, determination, positive attitude. Your example, your words will live with us.

    I am so saddened to read this news. Winter was one of my oldest friends here. She, Jenny, & I were the "3 Ditzy Blondes". She was always so helpful, kind, and concerned for everyone's welfare.

    Winter, look for the beautiful cowgirl and the Cherokee Irishman when you get there. They'll be waiting with open arms. Goodbye, my friend.

    Love,

    Wolfen

    Oh no. Dammit. I never knew

    Oh no. Dammit. I never knew her but I'm sitting here crying now. She was such a great lady, it was obvious in her posts. The world has lost someone very special and will be the poorer for it.

    To her family, I am so, so sorry. God bless you all.

    Be At Peace Winter Marie

    I was out last night and checking something on the phone and this was there when the browser opened to this page and refreshed.  I had to just walk away from everyone to a spot where I had to be alone as tears started.  Even trying to type this now, it is starting again.

    She was so amazing in her strength in the face of this.  She was one of the first I started "talking" to here. Her advice about how to handle things helped me through, and I used a variation of one to help with the ability to drink cold things and limit the effects of the chemo.  And her sense of humor was wonderful.  The naked happy dance post was prcieless and I could not stop laughing.  My hope is that I can help others along this road as she has.

    Condolances to all of her family.

    Oh my, I will miss our dear friend.  Winter Marie was one very special lady, so very caring and supportive to all who had the privilege of knowing her.  She gave me the strengh to carry on during difficult times and pushed me through those times with a lot of caring, insight and a bit of humor.  It is with great sadness that I'm writing these words, it's beyond comprehension how someone so kind and dear could be taken from us, like so many others...  I will forever be grateful that she was a part of my life, and, as such, a piece of my heart is now missing.  Soar above the clouds my friend, you are finally at peace.

    My sincere condolences to her family and friends,

    Love,

    Cynthia
