Dear Family,
I am sorry for your loss. My uncle (George Chambers) always talked of Doc Warden and took me to the house to visit at times. He was a wonderful friend to him and my uncle shared many stories with me over the years about the Wardens.

I send my sincere sympathy to the Worden family. Through Drs Worden's generous funding , I was able to obtain my Master's in Nursing degree at SUNY Syracuse with the help of the Joan Post Worden Scholarship that I received upon graduation from CCC. Dr Worden was a kind and generous soul and will not be forgotten.
