I attended Mortuary School at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis graduating with a Bachelor's of Science degree in Mortuary Science in the spring of 2001. I then served my apprenticeship at Heafey, Heafey, Hoffmann, Dworak, Cutler Funeral Home in Omaha.
Welcome to Wintz Funeral Homes
Grace and peace to you Vivian, Christin, Josh, and family. Our time together at LCOOR was so meaningful with Gary and Vivian. God so blessed our family with Gary’s messages and friendship. Vivian and family, we are so sorry to hear of Gary’s passing. The years we were members of Trinity in Vermillion were made so meaningful by the kind of pastor Gary was. The world is a little less fun with Gary not in it.
Prior to raising our family, Kristi worked for Hair by Stewarts in Yankton. Our greatest joy and blessing in life is our family. We are members of Sacred Heart Catholic Church and Catholic United Financial. As a family we enjoy volunteering at Sacred Heart Catholic Church and at the Sacred Heart Bazaar.

Wintz Funeral Home in Crofton
We moved to Hartington in July 1975 where I joined my father as a funeral director at the Wintz Funeral Home. Carla began working as a Physical Therapist at Sacred Heart Hospital and worked full time until our second child was born in 1979. She continued working part time for several years and then began doing consultant work at various nursing homes. I grew up in Hartington, Nebraska next door to the funeral home and graduated from Cedar Catholic High School.
I graduated from Hartington Cedar Catholic High School in 1979. I attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln for two years before attending Wayne State College in Wayne, Nebraska. I graduated from the Cincinnati College of Mortuary Science in the fall of 1983 with a degree in Mortuary Science. I then moved to Omaha, Nebraska in 1983 where I served my apprenticeship and worked with the John A. Gentleman Mortuary from 1983 to 1985. In the fall of 1985, I moved home to Hartington and joined my brother Jim Wintz at the Wintz Funeral Home. The Wintz Funeral Home began when my father moved to Hartington in 1947.
Rev. Gary A. Westgard
For anyone who is interested in preplanning your funeral, you can be sure your legacy will be protected and that you can easily have peace of mind. I enjoyed helping him at Makepeace and so happy he married my girls. My thoughts and prayers are with you at the tough time.
I served my apprenticeship at the Crosby, Kunold, Burkett Funeral Home in Omaha. On September 7, 1974 I married Carla Bruening. She graduated from the University of Nebraska Medical Center in 1975 with a degree in Physical Therapy.
Contact us for pre-planning, funeral services, and aftercare support. I have great memories of your time in Laurel. Gary was a loving and faithful man who had a wonderful sense of humor and strong faith in the Lord. He loved reading, rooting for the Twins and the Vikings and watching John Wayne movies, especially ones by his favorite director, John Ford. He loved his family most of all and will be greatly missed.
My heart breaks with you right now as I know how hard it is to lose too soon someone you love so much. I’m glad you’re together and there for each other, and wish very much that I could join you. I will be with you in spirit until I can make the trip out there for a visit, hopefully very soon. We are members of the Hartington Golf Course. I am a member of and active in numerous church, school and civic organizations. We are members of the Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Hartington.
He was a wonderful kind pastor when in Laurel. Kristi and I are members of Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Hartington. We are presently active as officers of the Cedar Catholic Booster Club and also members of the Hartington Golf Course and the Elks Club in Yankton. I am active as the director of the Hartington Park Board, along with several school, church and civic organizations. I married Kristi A. Arens on September 26, 1987. We have five children, Paige, Jason, Ross, Lauren and Carissa.
