Not sure what to say?

Think of Warner everyday while broadcasting for St John´s Baseball. He was such a pleasure to work with in the booth and I am deeply indebted to him for all he taught me during that time.

To the Fusselle family,
I was deeply sadden to hear of his passing. I left working baseball in 2010. I was the Athletic Trainer for the Brooklyn Cyclones from 2002-2004. It was one of my best Baseball memories I will have. I was watching this week in base.He was a true friend to me. We had some long bus rides. Rest in Peace my good friend. I will never forget the baseball interview. I still have that tape. We had some great baseball conversations about the past baseball players.

I worked with Warner when he was the radio announcer for the Virginia Squires of the old ABA during its final years of existence. We roomed together in 1974 for a year and I truly got to see up close how dedicated and professional he was and how he took his job very seriously. He loved being a broadcaster and was very good at it. I would run into him once in a while in New York years later and he was just the same Warner, at the time doing This Week in Baseball.

Prayer is one of the things that help us through such difficult times. My prayers and thoughts have been for Warner's family and friends. Was looking forward to seeing him at our class reunion. He was always there for us.

May God's grace and peace be with Warner's family during this difficult time.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Warner's loved ones. I, like others, was looking forward to seeing him at our GHS class reunion.

Alicia, bubba was out of town and emailed this to me but I am just now looking at my email. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. We had no idea that you had such a famous brother. He sounds like a delightful person and i know he will be greatly missed! God's peace dear friend.....

Wth love,
Bridget

You were a true friend to me during our days at GHS and during my problems later in life. As an old Yankee fan I will always cherish the friendship of the Cardinals' greatest fan. Rest in peace. James Dorsey ("Chubby")

I pray for God's grace and comfort for Warner's family members during these difficult days and months to come.
