Alta Marie Wine passed peacefully into the arms of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ after a long, vibrant life of 99 years. She was born on Second Creek near Ronceverte, West Virginia and moved to Virginia in 1931. On September 12, 1936 she was baptized, publicly declaring her belief in Jesus Christ as her Savior. "My Jesus, I Love Thee" was sung during her baptism, becoming her favorite song.
Early in her life, she developed a love for the Bible, a passion that remained constant until her last days on this earth. In 1941 during her senior year at Manassas High School she met her husband of 66 years, Edward "Ned" Wine.
Marie was the consummate companion and supporter of Ned. Together they worked to create a sheet metal business and launch E. E. Wine, Inc. She was the bookkeeper until she retired in her late 70s, after three decades of service. The company continues their legacy under the leadership of 2 of their children, a son & daughter. Marie served as Organist, Sunday School teacher and Treasurer for Manassas Assembly of God (now Chapel Springs Church), where she attended for over 67 years.
Starting at age 62, Marie and Ned carried out their faith by serving on many mission trips. Always a team, they helped build churches, community buildings, and schools in the Dominican Republic, Belize, Mexico City, Guatemala, Morocco, Tanzania, Yugoslavia and Hawaii.
A resident of Caton Merchant House for 9 ½ years, Marie became the champion of her peers. She knew their birthdays, their age and how they were doing. She formed strong bonds with the staff and shared her faith liberally. Without these strong bonds, survival of 2020 would have been impossible. At the end of her days, many reported that Mrs. Wine never spoke unkindly to anyone. Her presence and positive outlook will be greatly missed.
Marie was inspired and lived by the words of Psalms 119:105, "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path." Her goal in life was to let her light shine so others could see Jesus through her and come to know Him. This is the legacy she left for her children, her grandchildren, her great-grandchildren and all of those who were blessed by her friendship. She has been very active in the lives of her grandchildren and great grandchildren and will be sorely missed.
Marie is survived by her five children & their spouses, 13 grandchildren and 22 great grandchildren. She was the middle sibling of five children—all who have preceded her in death. She is also survived by one sister-in-law.
