Owella Warner Obituary


Owella M. Warner CHESAPEAKE - Owella M. Warner went to her eternal resting place Sept. 12, 2008, at the age of 101. She had been a resident of Sentara Nursing Center, Chesapeake. Owella was born in Pennsylvania in 1907 and lived many years in Clarks Summit, Pa. She later moved with her husband, Harry, to Florida and then to her final resting place in Virginia. She often expressed her feelings by writing short poetry works which will long be cherished by daughters, Gloria Cockrell and Linda Hunt and her husband Wilson; grandson, Mark; as well as a great-grandson and two great-great-grandchildren. She will be remembered lovingly by her nieces, Kay and Sandra and their families. No services are planned at this time. The Cremation Society of Virginia is assisting the family.
