With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Irene Warner, who peacefully left this world on January 12, 2025, surrounded by her beloved family. She was 79 years old.
Born in 1945, Irene spent the majority of her life in Humboldt County, with additional time spent in Ukiah, Willits, Oregon and Southern California throughout her journey. Irene was a woman of immense compassion and generosity, dedicating much of her life to caring for others. Whether in her professional role as a caregiver or in her personal life, she always prioritized the well-being of her family and friends. She was known for her selflessness, often opening her home to offer a safe and warm place to stay for those in need. Irene’s nurturing nature extended to all those fortunate enough to know her.
In her leisure time, Irene enjoyed reading and could often be found singing and dancing whenever music played, a testament to her vibrant spirit and zest for life.
Irene was preceded in death by her parents, Bill Augusta and Leona Hamilton; her sister, Mary Lou Augusta; her beloved husband and lifelong companion, Dan Warner; her daughter, Kristina Warner; and her granddaughter, Hailey Augusta.
She is survived by her siblings twin sister, Barbara Augusta and brother Billy Augusta; her daughters, Genave Amorosano and son in law John Amorosano, Melissa Augusta, and Michelle Warner; her son, Dan Warner; as well as her cherished grandchildren, Joshua Winkler, Christina Moody, Joseph Winkler, Amanda Alger, Jeremy Willison, Ashliegh Augusta, Bella Augusta, Lauren, Christopher, Jacob, and Jocelyn. Irene was also deeply loved by her great-grandchildren, Bradley Willison, Kylie Willison, Everly Willison, Paislee Augusta, Gabriel Martinez, Christian Martinez, Mikayla Fornah, Serene Ebo, and Ariel Ebo. Irene’s family extended to numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins, too many to name, but each of whom held a special place in her heart.
Irene’s legacy of kindness, love, and devotion will continue to inspire all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her memory will forever live on in the hearts of her family and friends.
A celebration of Irene’s life will be held at a later date, and details will be shared with family and friends.
