I am proud to have known Warner. He was one of the kindest, gentlest people I’ve ever known. So smart and intelligent, yet humble and modest. I learned so much from him. He will be greatly missed.
Jeff, he always enjoyed you when we were all together. Thank you for your kind words.
He was a great man and I know you will miss him, but God has a plan, you can grieve and know he is at peace.
He loved golfing with you, Bob! Thank you
Peterson Family – Heather and I have some wonderful memories with your family over the years. Thank you for including us. The antics were as common as the laughs. Condolences from the Bunnel clan. Love you all.
Warner was such a dear friend of my dad, Gene “Tap” Tapia. My condolences to all of you. May the reunion with all of the guys be as fun as The Klamm Shell always was for them.
Always Lori Tapia
Thanks Lori! I always loved surprising them occasionally at the Klamm! Lot’s of love and laughter in that friend group for sure!!!
Love Shelly ❤️
Lori,
My dad and your dad were like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid based on the stories my dad shared with me!!
Cheers and thanks for the well wishes.
