Obituary

Mrs. Fay Gilstrap Ratcliff, former Winnfield resident, died at age 85 on Tuesday, November 26, 1991, in a Baton Rouge hospital. She has recently been an enthusiastic and prolific contributor with her "Home" stories in Winn Parish Past Tense, the Enterprise's historical column.

As a former Baton Rouge resident, Mrs. Ratcliff had resided at the Golden Age Nursing Home in Denham Springs following a severely disabling stroke. Prior to moving to Baton Rouge to be near their children, Mrs. Ratcliff and her late husband, A. V. "Stone" Ratcliff, a well known Coca Cola employee, had lived in Minden, La., occupying the same residence for forty years.

Before her marriage to Walter Breithaupt in Minden, the Arkansas born Mrs. Ratcliff had moved at age fifteen to Winnfield with her family. She is remembered as a sales clerk in various local business establishments, particularly Milam's Style Shop on Main Street.

Mrs. Ratcliff was predeceased by her parents, Charles and Clara McGilliland [sic McGalliard] Gilstrap, a sister, Mrs. O. O. (May) Nash, and three brothers, Jack, Carl, and Bill Gilstrap.

She was a member of University Baptist Church in Baton Rouge.

Survivors include one daughter, Mrs. Robert R. (Mary Ann) Williams of Baton Rouge; one sister, Frances Gilstrap Smith of Winnfield; one brother, Jesse Gilstrap of Monroe; two granddaughters and one great grandson and several nieces and nephews.
