ADAMSVILLE, Ala. -- A funeral service Monday afternoon at 2 will be held for Kim Werner, wife of Northwestern State football offensive coordinator Dan Werner, with visitation from noon until the time for the service.
The Crestview Memorial Funeral Home in Adamsville, near Birmingham, will be the site for the visitation and service.
Mrs. Werner, 37, passed away unexpectedly in her sleep overnight Wednesday in Oxford, Miss., where the family had resided the past three years. Her husband joined the NSU football coaching staff in mid-January as offensive coordinator after a 21-year coaching career including stops at Ole Miss in 2006-07 and Miami (Fla.).
Messages of condolence and support can be sent to coach_werner@hotmail.com via e-mail. Cards can be sent to the NSU Football Office, Athletic Fieldhouse, Natchitoches, LA 71497. A guestbook is also available through the funeral home's website at the website www.cmgfh.com on the internet.
The Werners are parents of two children, daughter Maya (10) and son Ian (5). They met when Coach Werner was on the football staff in 1993-94 at Louisiana Tech.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to the Autism Society of America, 7901 Woodmont Ave., Suite 300, Bethesda, MD 20814-3067, in honor of the couple's son.
A delegation from Northwestern, including director of athletics Greg Burke, head football coach Bradley Dale Peveto and coaching staff members, will attend Monday's services.
A moment of silence in her memory was held prior to the start of Saturday's home basketball game at NSU.
