Warren was born June 9th, 1950 in Ono California, about 150 miles north of Sacramento, the only child of Ruth James. His mother died when he was 11, then it was just him and his grandfather.
In 1970 he met his first wife, Rusty, when he stopped at the store she lived behind every day after work for a soda. They married in September of that year and Warren enlisted in the Army. Soon after that, his only child, daughter Chrissy, was born. Warren and Rusty divorced a few years later, and when he got out of the Army in 1980, he returned home to Ono.
Almost 10 years later he met his second wife, Leverna. Soon after they married, they decided to leave California and move to Wyoming. Except for a brief trip home when Chrissy got married, which was the first time he would meet his son-in-law, he didn't return to California.
