Georgia
Warren
Sep 6, 1927 — Oct 29, 2024
Ypsilanti
Georgia Howard was born on September 6, 1927, in Aberdeen, Mississippi, to Willie and Gustella Howard. She was their only child and grew up in the Aberdeen School District. At the age of 20, Georgia married Nathaniel Warren Jr., and together they had thirteen children. Their marriage lasted until his passing. At the age of 24, Georgia accepted the Lord into her life. Widowed at 37, she dedicated herself to raising all thirteen children to love and serve God. She was passionate about spreading the gospel, passing out tracts wherever she went, and sharing the word of God with everyone she encountered. Georgia also hosted Bible studies in her home for both adults and for the children and grandchildren in her neighborhood. She was a dedicated Sunday School teacher and a faithful volunteer at the Hope Center in Ypsilanti, MI, where she prayed for those in need. She didn't just know God's word; she lived it. As Bishop Demsey Allen often said, she was a "Walking Bible." One of Georgia's greatest joys was reading and meditating on God's word. She frequently quoted Scriptures throughout her home, and all of her children take pride in their ability to memorize verses verbatim, a testament to her unwavering faith and dedication to teaching them God's word. Georgia was also known for her love of cooking, with her greens being a family favorite. She was famous for her hospitality, always preparing hearty Sunday dinners and festive holiday meals for family and friends.
Affectionately called "Medea" by her children, "Grandma" by her grandchildren, and "Sis. Georgia" by her church family. Georgia was a beloved member of Pineview Church Apostolic Faith for over 40 years. She was honored as a "Mother" of the church and served her congregation faithfully. In addition to her ministry, Georgia was an accomplished author. Her body of work includes three books: Exhortation of God's Word by the Authority of Jesus Christ, Collective Works Inspired by God, and Autobiography of Georgia Warren: By the Grace and Mercy of God. Georgia's laughter, wisdom, and genuine kindness will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
On October 29th, Georgia Warren completed her earthly journey and transitioned to be with the Lord. She was preceded in death by her parents, Willie and Gustella Howard; her husband, Nathaniel Warren; three daughters—Rosie M. Osely, Mary A. Warren, and Sharon Johnson; three sons—Stephen Warren, Michael Warren, and David Warren; and four great-grandchildren. She leaves to cherish her memories, seven children: Joyce (Neil) Willis, Nathaniel Jr. (Era) Warren, Cynthia (Henry) Landfair, Gloria Warren, Jonathan (Cornelia) Warren, Mildred (Ray) McClarity, and Naomi Kanu. She also leaves behind a loving legacy to thirty-six grandchildren, fifty-nine great-grandchildren, and seven great-great-grandchildren.
