Obituary for Evelyn Virginia Waters Warren
Memorial services for Evelyn V. Warren, who died February 19, 2026, will be held on Sunday, March 1, 2:00pm, in the Blackburn Ballroom at Northwest Square, 238 W. Clara Ave, DeLand, with her great-nephew Jon Hunnell, officiating.
A former executive vice president of a national trade association, headquartered in Washington, D.C., Evelyn was born on May 29, 1921, at Lock #9 along the Monongahela River near Morgantown, West Virginia.
Evelyn was preceded in death by husband, William A. Warren, two sisters Alice Waters of Morgantown, WV and Dorothy Hunnell, Euclid, OH, as well as her nephew Daniel Hunnell (Debra), Euclid, OH.
Survivors include stepson Arthur Warren (Mary) of Daytona Beach Shores, nephew, David Hunnell (Kathy), Norman, OK, niece, Deborah Konrad (Steve), Port Orange, FL, along with numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great grandchildren, and many amazing and treasured friends.
She was a devoted mariner-officer’s wife, highlighted by the challenges of long separations, and several moves due to Military Sea Transportation Service. Following his retirement, they traveled extensively to all fifty states, Canada, Europe and the Far East.
Retirement to Evelyn meant volunteering. Known for her kindness, gentle manner and remarkable sympathy, she esteemed it a privilege to be an active long-time member and former leader of the Women’s Club of DeLand. She lived her life with respect, consideration and caring courtesy for others as a volunteer at Neighborhood Center, past president of the Association for Widowed Persons, and honorary life member of the Active & Retired Federal Employees Assn, as well as an active and contributing member of Trinity United Methodist Church.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Residing Hope (formerly the United Methodist Children’s Home), 51 Children’s Way, Enterprise, FL 32725.
