- Warner’s symbol is the heart. No one's heart is bigger. She is universally loved, but there's a reason when she gives her word she gives her heart, and she's been creating miracles ever since. Warner's life is a lesson for every working woman, every woman who has struggled to succeed. She has raised an extraordinary family, sustained a great marriage while becoming a public figure. Houston celebrities have come and gone, but Warner will never be forgotten. Everyone that meets her remembers her, admires her and wants to be like her. Including me.”
~The Honorable Joanne King-Herring
