Jedediah Eli Warren

d. December 6, 2021

It breaks my heart to say that our precious son and brother, Eli has been transferred from this life to be with his Heavenly Father and several loved ones on the other side.

Jedediah Eli Warren, 38, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, November 29, 2021 in Layton, Utah from a pulmonary embolism.

He was born to Christopher Barr Warren and Marlis Ann Fabert Warren eleven minutes before his twin brother, Jeremiah Levi on October 28, 1983 in St. George, Utah.

This loss takes on an even deeper impact because they are identical twins.

He and his "womb-mate" Levi were the very closest of brothers and friends and were always there for one another, literally no matter what. They shared a lot of TWIN experiences through the years.

Eli grew up in Washington City, Utah. He was the 5th of 6 children and always VERY loved. He was the sweetest, most thoughtful soul. He was funny beyond funny and could do the greatest impressions. He LOVED movies, music, John Travolta and Robert DeNiro. He had a huge heart and the biggest love for all of us. He was very thoughtful and considerate of his mother. He called me "Mama Bear" and I will always treasure that nickname. What I wouldn't give to have a big ole bear hug from Eli right now! Or, for he and his twin and I to go on our Wednesday breakfast "muffin run" another time like we did when they were in Jr. High School!

I am more than thankful and honored that our Heavenly Father entrusted ME to be he and his five siblings lucky Mom. Although things were really hard and challenging at times, it was the most fun of times for all of us growing up together! Although his given name was Eli, he liked to be called Elijah.

Eli really liked baseball when he was a kid.  We had a lot of fun as a family at the ball park every spring with all of the boys, Becca and even Mom playing on ball teams.  He used to worry a lot when he was growing up. Although at the time it could get really annoying; he just wanted everything to be perfect for all of us and things to go the way we said they'd go.  I will always treasure that little memory.

I will always remember when he and I went to Las Vegas to buy his very first car. He was SO PROUD of that car and working at Applebee's with the many friends that he had made in order to pay for it was huge for him.

In 2003 Eli had a misfortunate skydiving accident that tragically broke both of his legs. He has suffered multitudes of pain and discomfort since that time. He has always dealt with it amazingly well, always with that big smile on his face.

He even jumped out of an airplane one more time since his accident, to prove that he could! What a super hero!!

His passing has oddly blessed us and made us realize what we as a family really have together. We all love you so very much Eli. Words do not exist for the emotions we feel at this time.

Eli is survived by his mother, Marlis Warren-Eyre and husband (Bradley), five siblings: Benjamin (Cossondra) Warren of Washington City, Utah; Rebecca Warren of St. George, Utah; Joshua (Kathryn) Warren of Bozeman, Montana; Jacob Warren of St. George, Utah and Levi Warren of St. George, Utah.

He and his siblings were also blessed with a step-mother, Mercedes Warren of St. George, a half-brother, Christopher (Tori Lea) Warren of St. George and a bonus step brother, Tommy (Jessica) Salisbury of St. George.

His nieces and nephews: Jevin (Shay) of Salt Lake City; Alex and Emma Warren, of St. George; Anthony and Ellie Warren of Bozeman, Montana and Declan Levi Bennett of Salt Lake City, Utah; Blaise and Wolfgang Warren of St. George; Aiden, Quinn and Ruby Salisbury are all very sad at the loss of their uncle Eli.

Eli also has three bonus siblings, Rachelle Eyre, Braden Eyre and Preston Eyre who are mourning his loss as well. He has many aunts and uncles who are heartbroken at this time.

We know that Eli is in good company to welcome him with open arms. He is pre-deceased by his father Christopher Barr Warren (2012), his grandpa and grandma Warren, grandpa and grandma Fabert, his grandma JoAnn Fabert Downey, also a few cousins and other family members.

Graveside services will be held December 11, 2021 at 12:30 pm at the Washington City Cemetery.  300 Park View Drive (300 East) in Washington City.

A CELEBRATION of LIFE will follow at 2:00 p.m. at The Washington City Historic Relief Society Hall; 100 West Telegraph Street. *Entry at front door only*
