Our fondest image of Warren will always be him sitting by a campfire, sipping a drink, one hand on the side arm of his lawn chair and one on his drink. When he laughed, he would jiggle like jello. I'm sure in heaven, there is a lot of firewood and he'll be saving many spots for his family and friends. We will miss you Warren. Love Rose, Dwayne & family Galambos.

Our deepest sympathy to Faye and family. It is with great saddness that I have just learned of Warren's passing. I have many fond memories of Warren as he was a close friend as well as a great mentor that I worked with for nearly 8 years. I have not kept in close contact over the past years as we both have went our separate roads in life but I often think of some of the crazy things we did together - hunting trips, late night card games, and fishing trips to name a few.
You will be missed Warren.
