Warren was a kind and caring person. Our prayers are with his family.

I am so very sorry. This is a great loss to our community and to so many. He had a great life, for sure.

Please accept my condolences and regrets that I will be unable to attend Warren´s funeral as I will be in court in Dillon County.

Warren and I were Law School classmates. So far as I know, ours was the largest class that ever attended, but Warren stood out. I remember particularly his kindness and great sense of humor. He added much to the Bar and will be missed.

Kay and Family, you and I were in third grade together as well as attending first Baptist back in the 60's. We lived near your cousin, Diane. Uplifting all of your family in the days ahead. Eugene Burrus

My family moved to Columbia in 1966 and I attended Hand Junior High School in the 8th grade . I met Warren and many others in my first year while living on 3004 Wilmot Ave .

Dear Adelaid, Mike, Kay , and family. Warren was a one of a kind person. He was brilliant funny, kind and very giving. I have known his family since High School and kept up with him as his office was next door to the Elite. He has left a beautiful legacy. May his memory be eternal. Sending love and prayers to Adelaide and family. Chris and Debbie

What a great man and wonderful friend! Warren is certainly an unforgettable character in a good sense. As his law school roommate for two years, we had a mutually assured destruction pact not to repeat some of our escapades. However, beneath his sense of humor and determination lay a very generous person. After my parents moved out of Columbia, he invited me to lunch at his parents´ house virtually every Sunday. We studied and suffered through law school together, and Warren took...

Adelaide and family, want to express my sympathy on the loss of your husband and father. Thoughts and prayers are with you.
