Warren was a friendly face of the halls of GEICO. I never worked directly with him but knew his kind and thoughtful spirit. I will definitely miss his "Hello's and the calmness that surrounded him. My condolences to his family. Rest In Peace amongst the many angels in Heaven. Andrea Williams
I worked with Warren for a year as his supervisor at GEICO. He was a delight to work with. He as a dedicated worker, eager to learn and always ready to lend a hand. I will miss him. Prayers to all that knew and loved him. Meredith
Warren and I were graduates of MLW Class of '65 and we both spent a year at Hampton Institute and we both went to Vietnam but not together and we both graduated from VUU but not the same class but we both worked on Doug Wilder's successful campaign for governor in '89. He was in-charge of the campaign's computer network and keeping the system up and running in addition to designing various programs.
Rest well my classmate, fellow veteran and friend. Michael Brown
