Johnnye Elizabeth Warren

1931-2020

Mrs. Johnnye Elizabeth Warren, 88 of San Angelo, formerly of Snyder, died Thursday, June 25, 2020, in San Angelo.

Services will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday at Bell-Cypert-Seale Funeral Home with Mr. Jim Lionberger officiating. Internment will follow at Snyder Cemetery. Visitation will be held Saturday, June 27, 2020 from 9 AM to 10 AM at Bell-Cypert-Seale Funeral Home.  A celebration of her life will be held in San Angelo at a later date.

Mrs. Warren was born Sept. 22, 1931, in Snyder to John Robert and Lizzie Pearl (Lewis) Cole. She married Jack Warren on Aug.1, 1961 in Snyder. He preceded her in death Aug. 2, 1997.

After their marriage, the couple immediately moved to Saudi Arabia where Jack was employed by British Petroleum. Their daughter, Tomibeth Brooks, attended first grade in a British compound for the children of the American oil workers. After returning to Snyder, they began an 18-year career of farming cotton and ranching in Scurry, Kent and Garza counties. Johnnye took every step Jack took while making a loving home for their family. In 1981, they moved to San Angelo where Jack worked as an independent oil and gas consultant until his retirement in 1987.  Johnnye was then able to pursue her God-given talent of artistic design. Her creativity fostered a beautiful friendship with Joyce Wilde and J Wilde’s in San Angelo. Her creations could be found in the home of Clint Eastwood, the Plaza Hotel for Donald and Ivana Trump and creative gifts for Danielle Steel. Funny thing is that Johnnye would never tell you these things. She was humble in her life, work and everything else except for her children and grandchildren. Johnnye never missed an opportunity to gush about the family she loved so much.

Johnnye never missed a tennis tournament, school event or anything else her children were involved with. Johnnye was as dependable as the sun rising in the east. Her love was unconditional and unwavering. She made the world a better place.

Johnnye's family sincerely appreciates your love and kindness during the past month and during her brief illness. Never a sweeter woman in the world, her feisty personality and outlook made her seem larger than life. Her presence is felt in every aspect of her family's life. Her family said, "We were so blessed to have had her for 88 wonderful years.  We were selfishly struggling with how to let her go when we realized that she will never really leave us." 

She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband; a sister, Zora Lee McKinney; and a brother, Leslie Cole.

Survivors include two daughters, Mary Coffey and husband, Bill, of San Angelo and Tomibeth Hunt Brooks and husband, Gary, of Weatherford; two grandchildren, Ashley McLaughlin and husband, Will, of Weatherford and Camille Hays and husband, Ryan, of Ft. Worth; three great-grandchildren, Blair and Brooks McLaughlin and Palmer Hays.
