Obituary for
Zabrina Lee Warnock (nee Harris)
Zabrina Lee Warnock (nee Harris) was born on July 6, 1972 to Lorraine and Wayne Harris. However, it was her sister, Tabitha, that dubbed her “my baby” much to the exhaustion of her parents. No one protected her (or tortured her) more.
Zabrina was a beautiful child who loved to dance, sing and make music. Her heart was enormous and she made it her life’s mission to make sure everyone she met knew they were loved.
August 24, 1991, she married her best friend, Stanley Warnock. They showed the world what marriage really is by never giving up, no matter how tough it got. Stan kept Zabrina grounded and he was her lighthouse through her darkest storms.
That love produced a beautiful son on August 11, 1998. Nathanyal Carson Warnock was Zabrina’s world. Her eyes shone when he was around. She always said the best thing she ever did was make him and she loved him with a fierceness that was unmatched.
Her love for all her nieces and nephews was every bit the love she had for her own child. She loved them all unconditionally and her only complaint was that she never got to see them enough.
Besides her family, Zabrina’s love for music continued throughout her live. She was self-taught on the piano and had a beautiful voice which she shared with many. She was also the first person on the dance floor when the music started playing.
She was very creative and enjoyed painting and crafting. She loved sitting back and enjoying classic 80s movies and tv…she was convinced she was the 5th Golden Girl! She loved her annual camping trips with her family and enjoyed spending an afternoon or evening at the pool.
Zabrina was never really known for athletic prowess; but when she moved to Mayerthorpe she was brought in to the slo-pitch world. She went from a non-athlete to a pretty damn good back catcher. One of the highlights of her life was getting the last out at the plate to win the C -pool at the Nojack tournament.
Despite her large heart and amazing empathy, or maybe because of it, Zabrina fought the relentless demon of bi-polar disorder. She never battled with anything like she did that. She was never ashamed of her struggles and shared her experience with anyone who asked. We believe her brutal honesty may have made others struggles more bearable and we take solace in knowing her pain is gone now.
She will be forever missed, but she will also be forever loved.
As Zabrina was a strong advocate of mental health initiatives, a donation in her name to the Canadian Mental Health Association would be greatly appreciated.
