Pete Edward Tatum, age 66 of Winchester, passed away on Sunday, February 23, 2025, at his residence surrounded by his loving family. A native of Franklin County, he was born on October 8, 1958, in Winchester. He was a 1977 graduate of Franklin County High School and a devoted employee of Heath Automotive for over forty years. Pete loved his family and work, but he may have enjoyed entertainment most of all. He was interested in sports, movies, and TV series, and was the biggest LA Dodgers fan on this side of the country. If he had not seen or heard about it, Pete read about it. He was preceded in death by his mother, Wilodean (Finchum) King; and grandmother and aunt that raised him, Dona Mae (Bass) Finchum and Maxine Finchum. Pete is survived by his wife of forty-five years, Judy Tatum; daughters, Wendy Tatum, and Andrea (Curtiss) Stuller; granddaughters, Adriana Stuller and Olivia Stuller; and many cousins, nieces, nephews, and other relatives. Visitation will be from 5-7pm on Tuesday, February 25, 2025, at Watson Funeral Home. Funeral Services will follow at 7:00 pm in the Chapel of Watson Funeral Home with Rev. Dr. Michael Clark officiating. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations be made to American Cancer Society.
