Lets take a moment to focus on the good Warren Lasko brought to his family, friends and co-workers. While not share that goodness with someone and show some comfort. Remember, "the very purpose of our life is happiness, the very motion of our lives is toward happiness." - D.Lama

To Lorraine, Erika & Karen,

Warren was my closest friend in college at Columbia. We pledged fraternity together and roomed together at AEPi during our sophmore year. He was my best man. We shared many wonderful moments (like the time when we were caught by the police when I was standing on his shoulders trying to remove the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel sign from the tunnel entrance during pledge week). Although we drifted somewhat in later years, when we got together, it was like I saw him yesterday. I will miss him; he was a wonderful human being.
