Paul Winningham

It is with deep sadness that I need to let you know that Paul Winningham, Wes Winningham's father, died early this morning in his sleep. There are no details as to cause at this point in time. Your son's were briefed about this at practice so I wanted to make sure parents were aware as well.

Paula is surrounded by close friends and family at this point. She and her family will get information out as to the best way to show your love and support as their needs become more clear.

There will be a moment of silence for Paul at the game tomorrow. Please come out and show your support. Paul was a good friend, outstanding father and husband, and avid fan of Wes, and CV Sports.

Please volunteer at the game. We need your support.
