He leaves his beloved wife of 42 years, Donna M. (Aitken) Warren; his devoted sons, Robert A. Warren, Jr. and his wife Heather, of Sutton, and Michael S. Warren, of Shrewsbury; three grandchildren, Jaren Peckham, Evan Warren, and Austin Warren, all of Sutton; his sister, Bonnie J. Goodney and her husband Donald J. Goodney, of Shrewsbury; along with an aunt, several cousins, nieces, nephews, grand-nieces, grand-nephews, his Shrewsbury Fire Department family, and his grand-dog, "Zues." Robert was predeceased by his sister, Cindy Lou Henderson; and their parents, Francis and Dorothy A. (Lang) Warren.
Born in Worcester, raised and educated in Shrewsbury, Robert graduated from Shrewsbury High School, Class of 1975.
He married the love of his life on June 6, 1981 at Trinity Episcopal Church in Shrewsbury, and the pair settled in his hometown to start their life together.
Robert worked for the Town of Shrewsbury as a Custodian in the Public Buildings Department for 32 years, and for the Shrewsbury Call Fire Department for 42 years. He became Captain in 2012, and retired in 2016. He was the original owner of Warren Landscaping, which is still in operation today. Robert was also a stagehand for the former Centrum, now DCU Center.
In his free time, "Bubba" enjoyed bowling, hunting, fishing, and camping with his family, which they enjoyed for 35 years.
