Esther Jane "Essie" Wynn

Esther Jane Wynn, “Essie”, 75, of Lexington Park, MD, formerly of San Diego, CA, passed away on November 24, 2024, in Lexington Park, MD. Born on November 28, 1948, in Midland, MI, she was the daughter of the late Leonard “Jack” C. Chamberlain, Jr. and the late Esther Gage. Essie was the loving wife of Robert Jason Wynn whom she married in San Diego, CA on November 10, 1979. In addition to her husband, she is survived by her son, Jason Gage Wynn, of California, MD, her siblings, Leonard D. Chamberlain (Isabelle) of Ft. Pierce, FL, Elizabeth C. Patton (Bob) of Bellingham, WA, and her nephews and niece Leonard D. Chamberlain Jr., Henry W. Chamberlain, and Elizabeth M. Chamberlain. Essie graduated from Midland Senior High School in 1966, and then went on to attend Michigan State University. She moved to St. Mary’s County, MD from San Diego, CA in September 1992, and was a homemaker. Competitive? Absolutely! Whether it was Wheel of Fortune, a game of hearts, ping pong, darts, badminton, sailing on Wixom Lake, or cheering for her Chargers and Padres; she was in it, to win it. Her true passion though, was Women’s Team Tennis, as many can attest. For a period, she even served as an assistant tennis coach at Leonardtown High School. Esther was also a student of the Bible, former member of St. Andrews Episcopal, and a founding member of the Anglican Mission of Southern Maryland. The family will receive friends on Saturday, January 18, 2025, from 9:00 AM to 10:00 AM in the Mattingley-Gardiner Funeral Home, Leonardtown, MD, where a memorial service will be held at 10:00 AM in the chapel with Pastor Chris Whetlor officiating.
