On October 7, 2024 Mary Catherine Ellis Warren, 97, of Panama City had a change of address: she went to her permanent home in Heaven to join her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; no doubt she heard Him say, "Well done, my good and faithful servant."

She was preceded in death by her husband of sixty-six years, Loyd, a daughter, Diane Coleman, six sisters and two brothers. She is survived by her daughter, Linda Warren; Merrell Coleman (son-in-law); grandchildren, David Coleman (Jenny), Traci Coleman Beaver (Devin), and the Rev. John Coleman (Ellen); four great-grandchildren, Meagan Coleman, Andrew Coleman, IIan Beaver, and Samuel Coleman; two sisters-in-law, Ingrid Warren and Jeannie Warren; and numerous nieces and nephews. A special thank you to Connie Clark, a loving caregiver, and two very special friends, Connie Jones and Sandi Tuten, for their love and support through the years.

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. Saturday, October 12, at Grace Baptist Church with Pastors Mike Jones and Darrell Bevis officiating. The family will receive friends from 10:30-11:00 prior to the service. A private family burial will be held at Evergreen Memorial Gardens. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in her memory to Bearing Precious Seed, 1369 Woodville Pike, Milford, OH 45150.
