On February 1, 2021, the remarkable life of Dionne Warner came to an end. Since her first cancer diagnosis in 1995, Dionne chose to be upbeat, positive, and grateful for every moment of every day, and she encouraged all of us to do so too. In a rejuvenating, fun-loving way, Dionne shared these concepts with thousands of people in Canada and around the world. I am honoured to have written and published her story in Never Leave Your Wingman - Dionne and Graham Warner's Story of Hope.
My deepest condolences to her wingman, Graham, and their family and many friends. Dionne was much loved and will be sorely missed. This eloquent obituary was written by Graham and Dionne Warner. An article in the Regina Leader-Post shares some of Dionne's journey. An article by CBC Saskatchewan shares part of Dionne's story too. Fly high and free, Angel D! Thank you for the light you shone in our lives. We will never forget you.
