Wynn Nona “Nonie” McMillan, 79, passed away on Monday, March 13, 2023 at Harry Hynes Hospice Center in Wichita, Kansas. She was born June 24, 1943 to Florence Maudie (Green) and Willie David McMillan in Ralls, Texas.

Nonie was a talented crafter. She always had her bag of goodies wherever she went. She was known for making pot holders because they were small and would fit into her purse. She was a an excellent seamstress and had great crochet skills, a perfectionist in anything she put her hands to. Nonie loved to cuddle with any baby she could hold. She was even able to carry on the tradition of giving her great-grandkids their first peppermint stick when they were babies. Nonie had a servant's heart and was always offering to sit with the sick even when she didn't feel well herself. She was an amazing cook with incredible hospitality skills which she utilized when she had owned a Bed and Breakfast in Colorado. She enjoyed spending time with her family, especially game nights. Nonie was a true southern belle and cherished her beloved state of Texas and its bluebonnets.

She is survived by her children, Larry “Gene” Walker II of Wichita, KS, and Rebecca Pickens and husband Michael Pickens of Andale, KS; a step-son, Sidney & Colleen Fahsholtz of Greeley, CO; those who affectionately called her grandma, Heather Pickens of Andale, KS, Garret Pickens of Syracuse, KS, and Matthew Pickens of Dallas, TX; those that called her Gigi, Elijah Hernandez, Hunter Pickens, Avery Pickens, Zakariah, Caraline, and Claire Fahsholtz; and several nieces and nephews.
