Winfred James Hastings, hardworking man

July 15, 2023

Winfred James Hastings, 65, of Millsboro, earned his wings Wednesday, July 12, 2023, at TidalHealth in Seaford.

He was born Sept. 9, 1957, son of the late Roland James Hastings and Margaret Ann Tyndall. In addition to his parents, he is also preceded by his sister, Nancy Smith. 

Winfred, aka “Whimp,” to all who knew him, was a hardworking and unselfish person. Whimp was never too busy to help you and always had time to talk. You were sure to hear a great story that may include a little exaggeration.  

He dedicated 46 years of loyalty and commitment to the Collins Family. He also reigned supreme as a poultry grower, gin rummy champion, fishing guide and Monopoly mogul. There will never be another Whimp. 

Whimp is survived by his aunt and uncle, Bonnie and Larry Scott; aunt and uncle, Sandra and Merrill Tyndall; as well as many friends and neighbors in the Millsboro area.  

A graveside service will be held at 11 a.m., Wednesday, July 19, at Line Cemetery, Line Road, Whitesville. Pastor Chuck Reynolds will officiate.
