He was on the Mooresville fire dept. with my dad years ago. I remember Christmas parties and everything at the fire house with him. He was such a wonderful who touched many hearts. Prayers to all
‘Fudd’ was always quick with a joke or to tease you. He was such an upbeat person and full of life. You couldn’t help but to smile when you were around him. The world will be a sadder place without him.
Warren & I ‘grew up’ together. We were in the Civil Defense, Mooresville FD, & Lifestar together. Wanda, Sandy & I are so sorry for your loss. Words can not ease the pain right now. Lean on family and friends. Wish I knew what to say………
Warren will be greatly missed by many. Warren set many memories for Gary and I growing up as a kid. For me it was a tour of a the MMooresville Fire Dept., a ride on a fire truck in an Old Settlers Parade…probably every kids dream. Im lucky to have met him and growing up with Gary was always an adventure. Im pretty sure Warren laid down the law as a Big Man on me numerous times for causing some mischief that Gary and I got in!. God Bless you guys. My Condolences to Wanda, Linda, Gary & Family. From Steve, Laura, Grayson & Norah Dance
Linda and family, We were so sorry to hear about your dad’s passing. We remember meeting him at a Woman of the Year dinner. You and your familiy are in our prayers, as this is never easy. Hugs to you! Katy, Russ and Michael Yurk

With our deepest sympathies, the brothers and sisters of the Pittsboro Fire Department.
This is hard. The last time I saw Warren was at Mooresville High School a couple of years ago for the 50 yrs of wrestling program event. He was happy to see everyone as he always did with a big smile and hug. My deepest sympathies to his wife and family. I know he will be missed by all. Randy Murray ( Class of 72 )
I will keep family in my prayers. Mary Lou (Hendrickson) Parker
I remember Warren as so kind and always smiling. Wanda you and your entire family are in my prayers.
So Sad….Your In My Thoughts and Prayers
Warren was one of the ‘big kids’ in our neighborhood – but he was always kind to me. It says a lot about someone’s character when they are nice to the pesky little brothers and sisters on the block. I remember him very fondly – and also was very fond of his siblings – Melanie and Wayne, and his son Gary. Heartfelt condolences to all Warren’s family. Angie (Headley) Gunnell
My thoughts and prayers are with Wanda and the family during this difficult time.
One of the good guys. RIP Warren. Linda Payne Baker

our thoughts and prayers for the family! He will be missed and the memories will remind us of the the kind and gentle man!
It is with heavy heart that I could not be there for the Grubb Family. But, in spirit I was. I last saw Warren at Stan O’Dell’s Funeral in December. We talked briefly, but in the summer of 2010 at the Wrestlers Alumni we had a good conversation. Warren was the 2nd wrestler in 1972 to compete in the State Championships. He was a Champion on the mat, but more importantly, was a Champion in Life. I put a picture of the grapplers that attended the picnic. Unfortunately, three have passed this earth that are in the picture. It was a pleasure coaching Warren, but most important was the interaction we had. Warren was loved by many. God Bless!
