Born in Palco, KS, he was a son of the late Christopher and Mary Brassfield. First and foremost, Winn was a man of God, a loving and devoted father, and always generous to those in need.

Upon retirement, he worked in his son's delivery business programming computer systems for customer billing and accounting, and keeping the delivery trucks running.
