Mrs. Marie Warren Houston

On Monday, December 13, 2021, Frances Marie Warren Houston, age 93, completed her earthly journey and entered into the eternal rest she long desired and prepared for. Visitation with the family will be from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm, Thursday, December 16, 2021 at Scottsboro Funeral Home, with funeral services to follow at 1:00 pm. Burial will be in Hytop Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family suggest that donations be made in Marie’s memory to Cloverdale Rehabilitation and Nursing Center. Donations may be made by contacting Crystal Miller at (256) 259-1505 extension 210. Left behind to cherish the good memories are her children – Sherrill and Dan Garner of Scottsboro, Sandra and Rob Buckner of New Market, and Candi and Ron Hillis of Hazel Green. Grandchildren – Stephanie and Stewart Thorson, Brittney and Travis Upton, Morgan and Carl Johnson, and McKenzie Hillis. Great Grandchildren – Abigail and Ellie Kate Thorson; Dacy, Cooper, Holden and Brock Upton; Jayce Hillis and Rhylie Johnson. Her soulmate for 58 years, Charles Houston; along with two grandchildren, Julie Michelle and Steven Daniel Garner; and a great-granddaughter, Olivia Garner Thorson, were waiting for her arrival. We want to thank Cloverdale Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in Scottsboro for their tireless love and care for our Mother and Nana during her illness. Marie came from a long legacy of strength and love. Her parents, Rev. Robert & Cora Warren, had eleven children to establish this bond. Still here to celebrate their love are Veda (Jack) Manning, and Jeannette (Jim Stilwell) and Randy Weddington. Preceding her in death are siblings – Lena (Bud) Sanders, Rev. Buford Warren (Dorothy Warren, Elvleen Warren), Billy Warren, Rev. Paul Warren, Rev. Jimmy (Betty) Warren, Eula Mae Price, Wilburn Warren, and Beulah Faye (Raymond) McAllister. Also special to the family are living spouses of the siblings – Maxine Warren, Veta Warren, and Bill Price. There are also a host of nieces and nephews and continued generations of the family. Marie was a longtime member of the Holiness faith spanning from Crow Mountain, AL to Black Oak, Indiana to South Haven, IN and then here in Scottsboro. She was a faithful wife, mother, and grandmother and took great pride in sewing, canning and cooking for her family and friends.
