Warna moved to Sudbury in 1980 for the opening session of the Sudbury Theatre Centre as the Costume designer. Her magical costumes appeared in all of the mainstage shows.

Warna was also a dedicated life-long philanthropist. She started her generous life time of volunteering during the war in the canteen then continued with organizations such as the Girl Guides of Canada, Mental Health, the Gerontology program at Huntington University, Kiwanis Club of Sudbury, 111 Club at St. Andrews Place and was a proud founder of Interlink .This was recognized with awards for her volunteer work from the Professional Business Women of Sudbury and by the Province of Ontario with a Senior Achievement Award.
