Jim and I were so very shocked and sad to hear of Warren's passing. We would run into him once in awhile at the grocery store while we were visiting in Pulaski or of course at the class reunions. What a nice person he was and we always enjoyed visiting with him.
He will be missed...

I was a roommate of Warren's at Va Tech in the early 1960's. We hit it off just great from the start. He was a warm and friendly person and I enjoyed our time together. I will miss his great smile.
