Obituary

Marcia Lee Whetzel Warner , beloved wife, mother, grammie, daughter, sister, and aunt, passed away on June 2, 2025, at the Pendleton Manor in Franklin, WV. Marcia was born on April 15, 1947, in Harrisonburg, VA to the late Delsie and Olin Whetzel. She grew up in Singer's Glen, VA, and met the love of her life, Harry Allen Warner, in 1968. They were married on April 4, 1969, and made their home together on Smith Creek near Franklin. Harry passed away on November 8, 2023. They were married for 54 years.

Marcia's warm presence and caring nature left an undeniable mark on all who knew and loved her. Her fierce desire to protect and care for her family made her an exceptional Mom and Grammie; roles she embraced wholeheartedly.

Marcia grew up in the Mennonite church and later attended the Smith Creek Church of the Brethren. She was faithful and instilled the love of the Lord into her children and grandchildren. Marcia was a 1966 graduate of Broadway High School and  had worked at Hanover Shoe and later on, the Pendleton Nursing Home as a CNA. However, Marcia would tell anyone that the best job she ever had was caring for her grandchildren. She was an avid gardener over the years and especially loved growing and caring for her beautiful flowers. She was a seamstress, quilter, and crocheted many afghans for family and friends. She also had served as a Pendleton County EMT. Marcia' passing leaves a void in the hearts of those who love her, but her spirit will continue to inspire and guide us. Her laughter and her ability to make everyone feel cherished will be sorely missed but never forgotten.

Marcia is survived by her four children, LeeAnn Shreve (Richard), of Franklin, Allen Warner of Beaver, Alisa Warner of Petersburg, and Anthony Warner (Laura) of Monterey, VA; four grandchildren, Curtis Shreve, Adrianne Zajicek (Cody), Autumn and Levi Warner, and two great-grandchildren, Lucy and Owen Zajicek. She is also survived by her sisters, Peggy Nicholsen, Betty Lawson and Donna Miller, and sister-in-law, Stella Whetzel, sister-in-law, Rachel Ruddle (William), and brother-in-law, William Warner. Marcia is also survived by a number of nieces and nephews. In addition to her husband and parents, she was preceded in death by a sister, Judy Coffman (and husband Dewayne), and brother, Gary Whetzel, and brothers-in-law, Bob Nicholsen, Tommy Lawson, Harold Miller and Wilson Warner (and wife, Rebecca), sisters-in-law, Doris Bennett (and husband, Milford), Shelda Warner, and Lisa Warner.

In honoring Marcia's wishes, her body has been cremated with no public services. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to any Pendleton County Rescue Squad. Memories and words of comfort may be left at www.basagic.com.
