Marcia Anne Warner

Marcia Anne Warner December 26, 1957 - July 18, 2024 Marcia Anne Warner, affectionately known as Marci, was born on December 26, 1957, in Chester, PA. She was the second eldest of five children born to Jeanette Rochester-Warner and the late Garfield Herbert Warner. Marci graduated from Chester High School in 1975, where she earned a board-certified Pennsylvania Cosmetology license. Following her high school graduation, Marci pursued higher education at Cheyney University of Pennsylvania, the oldest HBCU, starting in the fall of 1975. Despite facing numerous economic and societal challenges, Marci earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications with Summa Cum Laude honors from Cheyney University in May 1997. Marci often spoke with pride about her dream job as a weekend Floor Director at WJAR-TV NBC 10 in Cranston, Rhode Island. She would drive over 600 miles each weekend from Chester to the Providence area while simultaneously working full-time overnight shifts at First USA Bank's corporate office in Wilmington, DE, and attending Cheyney University full-time during the weekdays. In January 2000, Marci was hired by Bank of America, formerly known as MBNA, where she remained a well-respected and valuable employee until her untimely passing. Marci had an infectious personality and a very caring heart, making it almost impossible for her to turn down anyone in need of her help. She enjoyed traveling, shopping, and spending quality time with friends and family. She was preceded in death by her maternal and paternal grandparents, her father Garfield Herbert Warner, and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. Marcia Anne Warner leaves to mourn her passing: her mother Jeanette Rochester-Warner; one maternal aunt, Dorothy Young; one sister, Anita Warner; three brothers, Garry Warner Sr. (Arlene), Gregg Warner, and Garth Warner Sr. (Daphne); two immediate cousins, June Johnson and Kenneth Young (Samantha); three nephews, Kareem Blake (Donna), Garry Warner Jr. (Kathryn), and Garth Warner Jr.; one dear niece, Courtney Warner; and a host of other loving family members, coworkers, and friends.
