Very good man
It's hard to put into words how much Warren meant to SPP. And, in his final months, he was such an inspiration to me personally -- coming back to work for just a few hours, receiving his 45-year service pin, and reminding me that God was with me every step of the way. While I was praying for him, he was praying for me. And, he truly was a blessing to us all. Praying for peace and God's grace to each of you.
Dear Brown Family,
I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I had the priveledge of working with Warren years ago when OG&E had a contract with Harris. I have enjoyed working with Warren over the years since and he will be greatly missed

Dearest Brown Family, I am blessed to have had Warren as my friend and co-worker for the last 13 years here at Southwest Power Pool. In all those years, he never changed. He was the most kind and gentile person I have ever met. A true Southern gentleman. He was well liked and respected by everyone. I will hold you up in prayer during this time of loss.
To my dear cousin Susie....I am so very saddened to hear about WB. I never met him but I know he was a wonderful man and he was so blessed to have you as his wife. Even though I can't be there for you, please know that I am there in spirit. Know that our Heavenly Father knows best and WB is no longer suffering. I pray that you will feel the Lord's peace & see the sun shine again soon. May he rest in peace. I love you Susie. Your cousin, Kim
