Our beloved mother, grandmother "Mootsie", sister, friend, and pillar of hope, peacefully passed away October 5, 2018. She was born in Salt Lake City to Nora Morris Cannon and Joseph Smith Nelson. Marian was sealed to Richard L. Warner in the Salt Lake Temple, May 5, 1949.
She found joy and purpose in selflessly raising nine children, teaching them gospel principles and instilling music in the home. She found creative ways to gather her vast posterity for vacations, recitals and making holidays special.
Marian magnified her remarkable gifts to bless the lives of others. Drawing from her parents' love of the arts, she became a skilled pianist, singer, artist, writer and organist. Piano was her passion. She found particular delight in accompanying her own children and grandchildren.
She had a unique appreciation for the beauties of the earth, frequently pointing out majestic clouds, autumn sunsets, or tranquil sounds of the beloved Mt. Aire cabin stream.
Tenacious in every endeavor, Marian excelled in academics, scripture study, documenting family history, taking up tennis or a new challenge to master the organ. She loved performing original musicals written with her sisters.
While supporting Rick in the demands of his career and Church service, she faithfully embraced all callings she received. Whether Primary Chorister, Relief Society President, or serving in the Laie, Hawaii Temple with Rick, she always gave her best. Her cherished legacy remains as one devoted to family with an abiding testimony of Jesus Christ.
Marian is preceded in death by her husband, Richard L. Warner and survived by her children: Julie (Armand) Johansen, Richard L. Jr., Bart (Liz), Marjorie Johnson, Lisa (Rob) Campbell, Molly (Jeff) Wetzel, Amy (Steven) Timm, James (Esther), Stayner (Kristina); sisters: Nonie (Maynard) Sorensen, Judy Jardine; Carolyn Nelson (sister-in-law); 45 grandchildren and 65+ great-grandchildren.
Funeral Services will be Saturday, October 13, 2018, 12:00 noon at the Monument Park Stake Center, 1320 S. Wasatch Drive. A viewing will be held Friday, October 12, from 6-8 pm. and prior to the services from 10:30-11:30 am, both at the stake center.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to a scholarship fund at BYU Hawaii in the name of Richard and Marian Warner.
