Obituary for Mary Margaret Warden (Bales)
Mary Margaret (Bales) Warden
Mary Margaret Warden, 83, stepped from this world to eternity Thursday, Jan. 2, 2014, at Sterling House Assisted Living Center in Salina, Kansas.
Mary was born Jan. 21, 1930, in Grant City, MO, to George and Anna (Scadden) Bales. After graduating from High School in 1948, she attended business school in St. Joseph, MO, and Denver.
She married Paul Gladstone Warden in 1950 and experienced farm life for two years. At that time, Paul joined the Army and Mary followed him to Tokyo during the Korean War. After returning, they moved to Salina in 1955, where she worked part time in the family business, Warden's Ready to Wear, while raising two sons. As her children moved on, Mary worked full time at Warden's as owner, office and sales staff manager, buyer, bookkeeper and inventory
and marketing supervisor until the business was sold and she retired with husband, Paul.
Mary came out of retirement to manage the Smoky Hill Museum Gift Shop for a few years.
Mary was an active member of PEO, Eastern Star and the First United Methodist Peacemakers Class. She was an avid bridge player and enjoyed retirement, golf, travel, grandchildren and her great-granddaughter.
She was preceded in death by her parents and her husband, Paul, 2011.
Mary is survived by her sons, Greg (Sue) Warden, Hamburg, IA and Doug (Donna) Warden, Warrensburg, MO. She leaves grandchildren, Kara Witter, Lindsey, Blaine, Erin, Joel and Renee Warden and one great granddaughter, Aeliayah Witter. Mary is also survived by her sister-in-law, Marilyn Hass (husband Walter), of St. Louis, and brother-in-law, Duane Warden (wife Carol Sue), of Dallas, and multiple cousins. She will be missed further by many nieces and nephews and friends.
Memorial graveside services will be held 11:00 AM Saturday, May 24, 2014 at the Honey Grove Cemetery, Grant City, Missouri. Rev. Susan Noakes officiating. Memorials: Tammy Walker Cancer Center or First United Methdist Church, Salina.
