WATTS, Warren, passed away on November 30, 2018 at Emory LTAC in Decatur, GA. Warren was the fourth child of the late John and Elizabeth Watts in Brooklyn, NY. He attended Brooklyn,NY public schools and graduated from Boys High in 1952.
Warren was an entrepenuer and worker. First with his step-father Emison Niles(deceased)and later a salesman and truck driver.

Warren was very sociable and well loved. He was the life of most family dinners and parties. His loves are and NOT limited to family first, jazz music, drums, taking photos (literally taking photos). He'd spend moments alone playing his music loud. and drinking a glass of liguid. Another enjoyable moment was reading the Daily News, NY Times and the Atlanta Journal. Warren was always abreast of politics, the who's who and world issues. Very knowledgeable of history as well. Last not least he enjoyed driving and traveling.
Warren had a great sense of humor, was nonchalant and would always quote sayings such as "Oh Lord", " Oh please! get out my face wit that sh__!! and "I don't know what's wrong with these d__ people." He'd spend a lot of time going down memory lane if you had an ear to hear and patience to stay and listen.
He's the kind of man that would give you the shirt off his back (provided it's not cold outside)
