Obituary For Romaine Ardell Wincapaw

Madison - Romaine Ardell Wincapaw passed away peacefully at Madison Point Senior Living on Thursday, February 1st 2024 at the age of 97.

She is survived by her four children Gail (Vic) Taugher, Libby (Bob) Weiler, Penny Schultz, and Jeff (Dana) Wincapaw; her grandchildren Nicole, Jenny, BG, Aaron, Lindsey, Melissa, Tim, Ryan, Sarah, and Isabel; and her great grandchildren Amber, Emily, Trenton, Isaac, Ashton, Isabella, and Ixety.

She is preceded in death by the love her life, Melvin Wincapaw. They were happily married for 73 years. They dedicated their entire life to their family.

Romaine’s children and extended family loved her beyond what words can say. She spent her life devoted to family—never missing birthdays, parties, holidays, and kept in touch with letters and everyday phone calls to make sure her “children” were happy. Her love of family was present in her thoughts and prayers and it showed in everything she did. She was one of a kind.

A private family burial will be held on Wednesday, February 7th at 1PM at Sun Prairie Memory Gardens. To view and sign this guestbook, please visit: www.ryanfuneralservice.com.

    To Romaines' Family, My sincerest sympathy to the entire Wincapaw family in the passing of your mother. I remember her and the entire family with such fond memories we had as neighbors in oconomowoc. Romaine and my mother Bernice found as much trouble as her daughter Libbi and I did. GOD Bless you all, and are in my prayers. Much Love. Cindy Block

what our families say

Tiffany Foster went out of her way to fulfill all my requests, talked me through problems I was facing, and tried to make me feel as comfortable as possible when I was a wreck, totally crushed, and I thank her with all of my heart for that.

The professional manner of the staff made a difficult time a little easier.

Lynda R. | July 2020

Services provided for both parents were perfect, on time, and no issues. Brenda is awesome and strong!

Michael M. | July 2020

Skyler was absolutely amazing. She was so caring and helpful through this whole process. She even went above and beyond to meet with us in DeForest and even to make a stop at our home to drop off or pick up anything needed. While it was a small gesture, it was so helpful and greatly appreciated.
