Gutherine was born January 11, 1939, in Rayville, Louisiana, the daughter of the late Garland and Nellie Adair.

She was preceded in death by her parents, two infant brothers George Earl Adair and Glen Adair; by her sisters Betty Jo Green and Ida Nell Hunter, and another brother, Billy Ray Adair.

Survivors include her husband; her daughter Debbie Sue Wood of Springdale, AR, her son, Eddie Winbury of East End, and a sister, Lawonna Saughter of East End; five grandchildren and numerous great-grandchildren.
