Winford H. Cothren passed away on November 17, 2024, at the age of 93. Born in Paragould, Arkansas, on September 5, 1931, Winford was a devoted husband to Constance "Connie" Cothren, and a loving father to his son, Fred Cothren. He will be deeply missed by his family and friends.

His hands were always busy, whether it was working on diesel engines or tending to his garden. His dedication to his craft as a diesel mechanic was a testament to his hard work and determination.
Winford's kind heart and gentle nature will always be remembered by those who knew him best. He leaves behind his loving wife, Connie Cothren; son, Fred Cothren and wife, Barbara; and a host of nieces and nephews to carry on his legacy.
Winford was preceded in death by his parents, Griffin and Ina Cothren along with six sisters and two brothers.
