Terry Lynn Warner

September 25, 1955 – July 11, 2016

Mountain Green – After a beautiful life and a courageous battle with liver cancer, our wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away peacefully at her home.

Terry Lynn was born on September 25, 1955 in Payson, Utah to Glen Walter Thatcher and Marilyn Adams Thatcher.

She married Max Kim Warner on March 7, 1975 in the Provo Utah Temple. Together they made Mountain Green, Utah their home, where they were blessed with four children.

Terry Lynn graduated from Payson High School where she was a cheerleader, and a member of the National Honor Society.  She attended Weber State University on an Academic Scholarship.

Terry Lynn was an active member of the Mountain Green LDS Ward and had many ward and stake callings.  She especially loved the Young Women and her Sunbeam Primary class. She worked many years as an Oral Surgeon Assistant for Dr. Blaine Austin, and taught piano lessons to many of the neighborhood boys and girls.  She took pride in being a stay-at-home mother to her four children.

Those who knew Terry Lynn loved her for her bubbly and vivacious personality, her Christ-like example, and for her courage and never-give-up determination during her battle with cancer.  The greatest joy in this life was her family, whom she loved unconditionally with all her heart.

She is preceded in death by her parents and sister, Kathey Thatcher.

Terry Lynn is survived by her husband of 41 years, Kim; daughters: Tiffany (Jon) Kortman, Salt Lake City, Utah, and Emily Wyatt, Mountain Green, Utah; sons: Wesley K. (Becca)Warner, Clinton, Utah and Shane Derrick Warner, Henderson, Nevada; and seven grandchildren.  Also surviving are three brothers and one sister, Gary (Cindy) Thatcher, Kevin (Kim) Thatcher, Gordon (Lisa) Thatcher and CoyAnn (Robert) Kilmer.

The family would like to thank CNS Hospice, the Huntsman Cancer Institute, Utah Cancer Specialists, friends, neighbors, and family for the many acts of kindness during Terry Lynn’s battle with cancer.

Funeral services will be held on Saturday July 16, at 11 a.m. at the Highlands Chapel, 5378 West Old Highway Road, Mountain Green, Utah. Viewings will be held Friday July 15 from 6-8 p.m. at the Highlands Chapel and on Saturday from 9:45 to 10:45 a.m. prior to the services.

Interment will be at the Milton Cemetery.
