Charles Eugene Warren, 69, our loving husband, father, grandfather, son and friend, passed away September 10, 1997 at his home from lung cancer.
Born March 15, 1928 in Cawood, Kentucky to Charles Alton and Irene Sharp Warren. Married LaVonne Hampton in ElPaso, Texas; later divorced. Married Shirley Ann Pappa in Taylorsville, Utah on April 9, 1965. Their marriage was solemnized in the Salt Lake LDS Temple. Charles worked at Momsen Dunnegan Ryan, and later for Strevell Paterson Co. for 18 years.
He was a self-employed owner of Miniatures of Trolley Square, and worked for NAC for six years before retiring. He held various callings in the LDS Church including, Sunday School Superintendent, Ward Librarian, Sunday School Teacher, Aaronic Priesthood Advisor, Elders Quorum First Counselor, Scoutmaster, Executive Secretary for the bishopric and secretary for the High Priest Quorum.
Charles served in the Navy during World War II as a Machinist Mate 3rd Class; also served 14 months in the Philippines. His favorite thing was being with his family and enjoyed family camping trips. He always said he was not "too hot" of a fisherman but he loved to hike and enjoyed nature. He enjoyed wood working and gardening and was a super handyman and could fix anything. A very hard worker his entire life, he put his family's needs before his own. He was a loving, caring and devoted husband, father and grandfather and will be dearly missed.
