The word I would use to describe Warren is "jolly". He always had a smirk, grin, sneer or smile for you. I loved his humor and upbeat demeanor. I remember vividly visiting his home when I was a teenager running around with Eddie through Youth Dept and seeing him sitting there in his chair reading his Bible. Something, unfortunately, you were not accustomed to seeing Christians do. Sorry we were out of town at the time of his passing. We would have loved to have celebrated his life with your great family. There is much to celebrate of the life of Warren Coker. May you have His peace that surpasses understanding.
