Obituary for Maureen L. Windsor

It Is with great sadness that the family of Maureen L. Windsor, 81, announce her passing on Oct. 8, 2022, at St.Mary’s Hospital in Tucson surrounded by her husband, Robert, and children.

Maureen was born on Dec. 15, 1940, in Los Angeles, California. Her early life included moving to Washington State, Clarkdale, and finally to Bisbee, Arizona, where she attended Bisbee High School.  Maureen and Bob were introduced by mutual friends in the summer of 1957.  Bob would pick her up at lunchtime and go have a hamburger. 

Their relationship flourished in the fall and they were married on Dec. 21, 1957, at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church.  Over the next years, they brought three children into their family, Richard, Suzanne, and Rob.  In 1975, the family relocated to Morenci with the closing of the Phelps Dodge Mine in Bisbee.

Maureen’s professional life led to opportunities as a telephone operator, insurance administrator, and service representative.  Being a secretary at Morenci High School was her favorite position.  She loved her time with staff and students.  Upon her retirement in 1995 and Bob’s retirement in 1996, they moved to Safford where they remained until her death.  Maureen’s attention to detail allowed her to excel in her passions, oil painting, and quilting.  Her talented paintings hang on many walls and adorable baby quilts are treasured by every grandchild and great-grandchild.

Maureen was called to her heavenly home, where she now joins her mother, Marie Elizabeth Fink; stepfather, William Fink; father, Grover Lewis McCall; stepmother, Elizabeth McCall, and brother, Michael West.  Loved ones who will miss Maureen deeply until they meet again include her husband, Robert (Bob) Windsor; Richard Windsor (Kathy); daughter, Suzanne Cuthbertson (Bill); son, Rob Windsor (Jana); eight wonderful grandchildren, Chris Windsor (Tina), Anthony Windsor, Trevor Cuthbertson (Kimmy), Nicole Lopez (George), Alyssa Baca (Oscar), Rebecca Mungillo (Josh), Brandon Windsor, and Brittany Windsor; sister, Marian Fletcher (Rich); brother, Matthew Fink (Mai); brother, Mark Fink (Roxanne); step-sister, Diane Mehtala (Richard); 10 great-grandchildren, and many cousins, nieces, and nephews.  Memorial services will be Saturday, Dec. 10, at 1 p.m. under the care of McDougal’s Caldwell Funeral Chapel located at 112 E.
