Tara Rae Warren, 48, of Sturgeon Bay, passed away late Thursday afternoon, February 28, 2019 at Door County Medical Center in Sturgeon Bay.

     She was born August 11, 1970 in Madison, the daughter of the late Robert Willis Warren and Laverne Dorothy (Voagen) Warren. Tara graduated from Homestead High School in Mequon in 1989. She worked in food service and was a member of Sturgeon Bay United Methodist Church.

     Tara enjoyed swimming, bowling, and traveling. She liked horses, ‘80s music, and movies especially, Star Wars and Grease. Her favorite color was purple, and she was always one to greet others around her. Tara loved her family very much.

     Tara was preceded in death by her parents; sister and brother, Treiva Warren Livesey and Iver Warren (who passed away two days prior); and other relatives.

     Tara and Iver’s lives will be honored, together, with a funeral service held at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday, March 3, 2019 at Sturgeon Bay United Methodist Church with Pastor David Leistra officiating. They will be laid to rest by family in Mount Olive Cemetery.
