We Remember

UPDATED – WINTERSTEIN, Luke Woodrow

March 8, 1973 — January 9, 2022

Luke Woodrow Winterstein passed away unexpectedly on January 9, 2022, at age 48.

Luke was not only an extremely talented Stonemason and Woodworker, but he was also very creative, taking up hobbies such as photography, blacksmithing, and leather crafting. Luke had a great passion for the outdoors, especially fishing. He enjoyed playing his guitar and listening to music. Everyone loved Luke’s witty sense of humour and his true character. May he be recognized for his incredible strength and courage for not only making positive changes in his own life, but also for reaching out to help others in need. He will be greatly missed, always loved, and never forgotten by family and friends.

Luke was preceded in death by his father, John Winterstein. Luke is survived by his daughter Emma, his mother Glenda Taylor, his sister Laura (Samuel), and nieces Mateya and Siena. Our family would like to extend our sincere gratitude to Pastor Craig Wilson for his unwavering support and friendship to Luke.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Life Church at www.lifeatclaremont.com.

    Luke was a part of our lives from the for many years. We had a lot of good times together and he did some lovely stonework for us, that we will treasure forever. While we acknowledge that he had some difficult years, there were also many, many good years; times we will never forget.

Testimonials

They took care of me like family.

Judith Szabo

Everything was so organized and pertinent to what we needed. Everyone we met was kind, courteous and very helpful during our emotional and challenging time. Thank you so much.

Heather Mayne

They were so prompt on answering any questions and changing things. They were prepared and respected any religious decisions. The process was so seamless and made easy in such a high stress situation.

Tanya Kohar

In the past 2 years Springfield has helped us through the death of my Mother and my Father. Their response and help allowed us to focus on the remaining family rather than worrying about details of the funeral and all the notifications that are required upon a death.

Terry Eldridge

The atmosphere has been nothing but professional during times of grief.  After the passing of my mother, the staff coached me on the next steps and looked after filling in all the government forms that I needed to sign, which took a huge burden off my mind at the time.

Donald McClure

Everyone was so helpful and kind.  There was no pressure.  They provided exactly what we needed.

Diane Greenwood

From the time I called to the completion of all the services, I received compassionate, attentive and professional care.  There was a sense of caring from each staff member.  I was turning over my Mom to their care and I felt very comfortable with everyone.  I felt heard and never felt pushed into any decision.

Katherine Lewis

I have always found the team at Springfield Funeral Home to be VERY caring, kind, considerate and helpful.  I have and will continue to recommend them to anyone who asks which funeral home would I suggest they use.  No other funeral home I have dealt with even comes close to Springfield Funeral Home.

Ethna Tutt

Right at the onset, I was made very comfortable, there was no pressure.  I was made to feel as if I was the only one they had to serve.

Frances Baum

Everything that was arranged for us was perfect.  Our loved one, husband, father, brother was treated with respect.  Thank you for making this difficult time a little more acceptable via your staff’s obvious caring and respect.
