In 1946 he married the love of his life, Virginia Nell Ott, "Denny." Their never ending love story was blessed with 66 years of joyous adventure. Together they built a family, several businesses, a lifetime of wonderful memories, and most importantly a lasting legacy of love. B.J. was outgoing, quick with a joke, and never met a stranger. He loved connecting with people, making them laugh, and rarely did you have wonder what his opinion was on much of anything. He was an avid fisherman, creative entrepreneur, successful investor, natural tinkerer, honored veteran, loyal family man, and in his retirement proudly the "C.E.O. of diddly-squat." Above all, he was a cherished Daddy and Pawpaw whose life exemplified loyalty, faith, and love. We will forever treasure our time together; especially our memories from the lake house, fishing, traveling, and watching him dance. He lived to the fullest! We are comforted that he's at peace with the catch of his life, Denny.
B.J. was preceded in death by his parents, his wife, his brother, Glen Warren, and sister LaVerne Campion.
Left to cherish his memory are his three doting daughters, nine grandchildren, twelve great-grandchildren, extended family galore, and friends everywhere he went.
