. I cherish the seventeen years Warren and I were fast friends. All of the parties, sales, shopping, and laughing we shared. He was always there for me and my family. His death has left a hole in my heart and soul. . My deepest sympathy for his son William, family and many dear friends not only in Houston but around the world. He was bigger than life and life will never be the same without him for me or any of his friends or family. Every day I think I need to call Warren and ask him about something. Warren shared my life and I will never have another friend like him. The world lost a wonderful soul that loved living to the fullest and one of the few people on this earth that knew what it was to be a real friend. He was family to all his friends and we will never be the same without him.

Not only was Warren one of the kindest, most compassionate men I have known, he was also highly intelligent, impeccably ethical, and never, ever boring.

Warren was a kind, giving, compassionate, warm-hearted soul that made you just feel cared for by being in his presence. I will remember him most by being "The Life of The Party", a barrel of laughs and not only living life to the fullest but enjoying and making memorable moments that were shared by all who knew him. "My condolences & heartfelt prayers are with your family and friends".

What a tragic loss. The impeccably dressed gentleman with a quick wit and a love for all things beautiful, cats, gardening and especially people and a good party. You will certainly be missed by all. May you rest in peace.
