OBITUARY

Nora Winn died March 28, 2025, at the age of 89. She is survived by her daughter Patricia Gaine and her husband Brian Gaine, son Kevin and his wife Michelle Land, and grandchildren Kelsey, Ryan, Luke, Connor, Eliza, and Liam. She will be remembered as a loving and supportive wife, mother, and grandmother who was always willing to help people in need. Nora immigrated from Ireland at the age of 19 and had 11 siblings. She worked as a telephone company operator, met her husband Bob Winn at a dance in Yonkers, and married in 1968. After raising her two children, she worked as an office manager and then as a real estate agent.

Nora took great joy in communicating with and supporting family in both Ireland and the US. She spent much of her time volunteering at Notre Dame Church and for other Catholic causes and was well known and respected for her devotion to family, community, and her strong religious faith. Her upbeat personality, amazing memory, and desire to help others made a lasting impression.

Visitation will be Tuesday, April 1 from 4:00 - 8:00 PM at the New Hyde Park Funeral Home, 506 Lakeville Road, New Hyde Park, NY. Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Wednesday, April 2 at 10:45 AM at Notre Dame Roman Catholic Church, 45 Mayfair Road, New Hyde Park, NY. Interment will occur at Holy Rood Cemetery, 111 Old Country Road, Westbury, NY.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to Notre Dame Church social ministry, where Nora and Bob volunteered for many years. One of their many functions is coordinating a dedicated team of volunteers who offer rides to seniors for medical appointments. This was extremely helpful to Nora after she stopped driving several years ago.
