Mr. Gaffney and I worked together for years at Sentara Bayside hospital pharmacy. We had many laughs together and always looked forward to seeing him everyday with that smile on his face. He was a great pharmacist who will be missed by many! My prayers and thoughts go out to his family

Warren was a fount of knowledge and a great man. I enjoyed working with him, his humor, and his deep infectious laugh. Although I haven't been in contact recently, he has been in my thoughts. Rest in Peace Warren. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. May God comfort you during this time of sorrow.

As a young hospital corpsman in 1968, I worked in the pharmacy at the old Little Creek Dispensary (before Boone Clinic). Mr. Gaffney always conducted himself in a professional manner, yet was friendly and helpful to the pharmacy clients and staff. I learned a great deal from him. I am sure that his family is rightly proud of his service. May he rest in peace.

I remember Mr. Gaffney from when I first started as a Pharmacist. We worked together for awhile and stayed loosely in touch over the next 20 years. He was a kind and good person whom I will never forget. He will be missed.
