Thank you, Susan, 1-26-2009
Since
1996 --- when I first located others with
Carcinoid --- I have answered every email sent to me, although some replies were
delayed longer than I liked. I am NO longer able to reply to all e-mails due to
the volume and other things going on in my life (all good). I do love hearing
from others, but an unable to reply to all individually. I shall not forget my
many Carcinoid friends and of course shall reply to you … as time permits. This
web site was 11 years old on April 27, 2008, and my plan is to keep it updated
for many years to come.
Since my husband "retired"
I am away from my computer for days, and sometimes, weeks at a time. Yes, there
is wireless internet and we have tried that a number of places. But, if I deal
with email when we are away from home then it is not a "restful vacation" for
me.

IN MEMORIAM
MONICA E. WARNER
May 16, 1937 – August 7, 2009 |
It is with profound sorrow that The Carcinoid Cancer Foundation
Board of Directors and staff announce the death of Monica Warner, a
driving force behind the foundation for over 20 years. Mrs. Warner
died unexpectedly on Friday, August 7, 2009. We extend our deepest
sympathy to Richard R.P. Warner, M.D., and his family on the passing of
his beloved wife, Monica.
Since 1987 Mrs. Warner served as CCF’s Director of Development and
Research Coordinator. She was instrumental in helping bring about the
carcinoid cancer/neuroendocrine tumor support groups throughout the
United States and was extremely proud to see the number of support
groups grow from the first support group in 1996 to over 40 groups
today.
Mrs. Warner was also solely responsible for The Carcinoid Cancer
Foundation’s outstanding website. She created the site in 1996 and it
grew under her leadership to serving individuals from 119 countries
worldwide. Nearly 1,000,000 people have visited the CCF website since
its inception.
In addition to her work with the foundation, Mrs. Warner was a
registered dietitian, certified dietitian-nutritionist, and certified
diabetes educator, with a Master of Science degree in Nutrition and
Public Health from Columbia University in New York City and a Bachelor
of Science degree in Food and Nutrition from Teachers College in
Stockholm, Sweden. She had a private nutrition practice; worked at St.
Agnes Hospital in White Plains from 1982 to 1987, where she was the
Nutrition Education Coordinator; and served as an adjunct professor in
nutrition at Westchester Community College. Earlier in her career she
was a nutritionist for the Dairy Council of Metropolitan New York, a
research nutritionist at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the
Bronx, and a clinical dietitian for the Swedish Consul General in New
York City.
A Renaissance woman, Mrs. Warner had a wide variety of interests
ranging from speaking four languages to a passion for both photography
and flying. She earned her private pilot’s license in 1988 and flew
several types of planes, including a stunt plane. Last summer, she
participated in a National Geographic photography program in France,
where her photographs were selected as among the best by trip
participants. Her photographs have long been seen on the Carcinoid
Cancer Foundation website, particularly from conferences throughout the
United States and in Europe.
Mrs. Warner is survived by her husband Richard R.P. Warner, M.D.,
Professor of Medicine at The Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in New York
and Medical Director of The Carcinoid Cancer Foundation; daughter Nancy
Coste, her husband and their two children of Brussels, Belgium; son
Charles Falker, his wife and their two children of New Rochelle, New
York; Dr. Warner’s four children, Dr. Jon J.P. Warner, his wife and
their four children of Weston, Massachusetts; Keith R.P. Warner and his
daughter of Denver, Colorado; Douglas C.P. Warner, his wife and two
children of Portland, Oregon; Lynn S. Unipan, her husband and their two
children of Ambler, Pennsylvania; and longtime household member
Elisabeth Herche. Mrs. Warner also has many brothers and sisters and
extended family living in Sweden.
It was Mrs. Warner’s wish for continuation of the many activities of
The Carcinoid Cancer Foundation and to enable this, donations can be
made in her memory to The Carcinoid Cancer Foundation, 333 Mamaroneck
Avenue, # 492, White Plains, NY 10605, or online at
http://www.carcinoid.org (click
on the Donate Now button on the home page) with a Visa, MasterCard or
American Express, or by calling 888-722-3132, Tuesday through Thursday,
10 am to 4 pm, Eastern Time.
Services for Mrs. Warner were held privately. |
