It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of our beloved father, grandfather, great-grandfather and brother Vilima’a Toleafoa Winterstein on Tuesday, November 23, 2021. He was born in Fasito’otai, Western Samoa to Toleafoa Aukuso Winterstein and Tagifano Lealaisalanoa on March 29, 1939.
Vilima’a’s legacy lives on with his wife of over 50 years, Autauloma, his 12 children, 20 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren and a host of nieces nephews and close friends. He was the eldest of 9 children, survived by 5 sisters and 3 brothers.
He was a long-time business owner in Tacoma, WA, a God fearing man that served faithfully in the local Samoan Seventh-Day Adventist church and a man that gave willingly and served others throughout his life. He will be missed by all.
