Nora Winkels

Nora Jean Winkels, aged 24 years, passed away unexpectantly on Monday, September 7, 2026 in Milwaukee, WI. She was born in Texas on March 22, 2002 and raised in Minnesota before moving to Wisconsin.

She was deeply loved by her mother, Robin Winkels; her father, Michael Winkels; brother, Jarod Winkels; and sisters, Michelle Chamberlin and Holly Bollinger.

Nora had a bright spirit and a beautiful way of seeing the world. She loved fashion, music, and dancing, and she brought color, energy, and imagination everywhere she went. She saw beauty and love in everyone, and her presence had a way of lighting even the darkest room.

Nora was adventurous, bold, and wonderfully herself. She had no filter and said what she thought when she thought it, often leaving those around her smiling, laughing, or seeing things in a new way. Her imagination was wild and vivid, and her dreams were just as big. In Nora’s eyes, there was nothing she could not do.

Nora will be remembered for her fearless heart, her joyful creativity, and the love she carried for the people around her. Her life, though far too short, left a lasting mark on those who knew and loved her.

She is survived by her parents: Robin and Michael Winkels, brothers Jarod Winkels, Ali Robida, and Saif Robida: sisters Michelle Chamberlin and Holly Bollinger: her good friend Clarice Erkins, and many other family members and friends.

A private family service will be held.

In honor of Nora, we ask that you hug your loved ones a little tighter, cherish your time together, and never take a moment with them for granted
