    To Warren’s children & siblings, our deepest condolences for your loss. My wife Lois & I moved across the street from Warren, in Milton, five years ago this coming March. We live in the house Warren & his brother Noel built for their late sister Barbara. Warren was a friendly & welcoming neighbour and we immediately became friends. Warren told us stories of his growing up in the house where he lived, about his hunting memories, about his family history & his kids. He had nothing but praise for his kids and grandson Colton. I was sad to see Warren move a couple of years ago and am sadder to hear of his passing. Warren made our move here that much more enjoyable. Rest in peace my friend.

    Sincerely,

    Lois Sheen & Bob Gosselin
