Winona Price Osterholt's Obituary
Winona Price Osterholt, age 93, of Mableton passed away surrounded by her family on January 26, 2024. Winona was born to William Oscar Price and Ruby Locke Price (neé Jaynes) in Anderson, SC. In her early childhood, the family moved from South Carolina to Georgia and settled in the Clarkdale Mill Village. Winona, along with her sweetheart, Waymon Lynn Osterholt, graduated from Mableton High School in 1947. The two married shortly after graduation and went on to raise 4 children.
Winona loved homemaking and being a “home administrator”. She was skilled at crocheting and made wonderful blankets for her children and grandchildren. She had an artistic eye and loved interior decorating and creating beautiful, inviting home spaces. Winona also loved her flowers and gardening. But her greatest hobby was travel, and she and Waymon traveled the world over together.
Winona is preceded in death by her husband of 66 years, Waymon L. Osterholt. She is survived by her children, Maria Osterholt and her husband, Scott McManus of Austell, GA, Vicki Osterholt Avery and her husband, Glenn of Ceder Bluff, AL, Mike Osterholt and his wife, Mary of Wetumpka, AL, and Paul Osterholt and his wife, Sheila of Cusseta, GA; eight grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; and many beloved extended family and friends.
The family will receive friends on Saturday, February 3rd, from 12:00 to 2:00 PM at Davis-Struempf Funeral Home. A private family graveside service will follow.
