On Sunday 6th December was David (Dave) Dave Warren's final farewell. With friends and family we scattered his ashes and lovingly wished him goodbye and we are so thankful that we were so privileged to have known him.
My tribute as we scattered those ashes follows:


The day's blur into sameness.
Each morning I awake and it's like Groundhog Day. I delay opening my eyes because it just might be a horrible dream and this time, maybe, just maybe, it might be that you're still here and I'll hear you speak just one more time.
You'd meander through a thought making it important to us. A story emerges. One of your wonderful stories that we will remember as our own one day. People will laugh and you're there in our minds eye with that half smile that's a little like a smirk of knowing satisfaction that the Warren magic has worked again. We're laughing - you did that.
You were that rare sort of human with whom you could just sit and say nothing and it didn't matter that no words were exchanged. You were just easy to be with. You didn't push into conversation you wandered in and we welcomed you.
You could make us laugh so easily, make us think more readily, scold us so gently, love us so completely. No one else can fill our hearts like you did, engage our minds with such an array of topics that it was hard to establish how you could possibly know so much and discuss with such conviction and intensity.
But we will all miss you in different ways for you were a friend, a father, a grandfather, a brother and the love of my life. A rare and common man whom we will love and cherish always darling. Goodbye for now until I can hold you once more 💔🐰💋POW
