I went to high school with Warren and just found out today about his passing. When I saw Warren at the 20 year reunion, it was like the old days. He greeted me with that one of a kind smile and laugh and sat down with me and my wife for dinner. I bumped into Warren a few times at Goodwill Church in Montgomery. He was a great guy and I will miss that rare, genuine charm that only he could possess. The last time I saw Warren he was at a gas station near Ellenville. He was sitting on the grass after having filled up the gas tank of his motorcycle. I was just getting off from work and I guess I looked upset. Out of nowhere, I heard, "Russ Morey! Hey - B-U-D-D-Y!" Warren had a way of helping you forget about anything that may have been bothering you by simply greeting you with a firm handshake, looking you in the eye and asking you how life was treating you. He was always sincere. I will always remember Warren for his kindness and his friendship. I miss you buddy!

I graduated high school with Warren. I was saddened to hear of his death. He was truly a nice guy and fun to be around. I saw him last at our 20th class reunion. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Goering Family.

To Warren's Family: I am so sorry to hear about Warren. I first met Warren when he rode on my school bus for a few years when he first started school.(What a little cutie he was.) He also lived near my parents and was a good friend. I feel so sad that he had to leave us at such a young age.You are in my thoughts and prayers . Marie Weed(Pine Bush,NY).

Lisa and family,
when I started to write this I wanted to share what I loved most about Warren then I realized that I could write a book about all the things I loved about Warren. I guess I just wanted everyone to know that I loved him. I hadn't seen him these last few months but I thought of him and prayed for him daily. Now my prayer is that he knew that. We will miss him beyond words.
Love and prayers,
Rose

I went to high school with Warren, I didn't know him that well, but I know the loss you have suffered. My condolences to the family. I lost my mom in a car accident and to lose someone so unexpectedly is devastating. I was shocked and saddened when I heard the news. Please contact me if you ever need to talk. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am Warrens 1st Cousin. I will miss him dearly. We kindof lost touch with each other over the years. I guess life gets in the way sometimes. I still remember spending summer weeks at a time at his house when i was young like it was yesterday. We would laugh so hard as kids that milk would fly out of our noses at dinner. Here is another one that I hope everyone can appreciate his sense of humour. One time in the summer we both donned a couple of my mothers fake fur jackets(Mind you it was summer) and rode my moped tandem up to the local
McDonalds went in and ordered food with our faux jackets and then watched everyone watch us in funky wardrobe. Couple of crazy cats.

I have plenty more but just wanted to give an example of what kind of person he was.

You will be missed and let this be a lesson to everyone to never let life get in the way of family

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness: there is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I'll welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight,
God and I are closet to you...in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years,
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, thought my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented.....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go....from that body to be free,
remember you're not going...you're coming here to me.

To open, my condolences to his sister Lisa, his wife Heidi and the lovely children affected by this tragic loss...

I've known Warren since middle school which is now the better part of 25 years. During that time we've shared some great moments growing up and going to school together, playing on sports teams, raising some "hell" of course, as we all did back then! He had a hearty laugh a great sense of humor and really seemed to enjoy his friends and the comraderie that came with it..definately some goodtimes...

He was certainly one who liked to live life on the edge, but always had a kind heart within and would extend himself to a friend in need...That compassion for others is what I will remember and carry with me going forward. Godspeed "Butch", we will surely miss you...

Helen and John Witherel
