Lucretia Warren

Lucretia Brinker-Warren was born September 4, 1944, in Atlanta, Chickasaw County, Mississippi to the late W.A. (Tom) and Mary C. Chandler-Brinker.

Lucretia left this life peacefully on Friday, March 6th in her home surrounded by her loved ones.

After graduating from Calhoun County High School, she made Erie, PA her home and worked tirelessly at various jobs including The Boston Store, St. Vincent Medical Center in the kitchen, and Hamot Medical Center in housekeeping and other areas. In her free time, she enjoyed going to church, listening to music, cheering on the Pittsburgh Steelers, and watching Basketball, and most importantly, spending time with her grandchildren, whom she cared for dearly.

Lucretia accepted Christ at an early age and united at Morning Star Baptist Church and Second Baptist Church. An avid churchgoer, she found solace and community within her faith until declining health prevented her from attending services. Despite this, her unwavering belief and spirit continued to inspire those around her. Lucretia will be dearly missed by her family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her.
