Melvin Kenneth Warren
February 7, 1942 ~ October 5, 2017
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Buck (Melvin ) Warren of Thorhild, Alberta on October 5, 2017, at the age of 75. Buck left us peacefully while in Westlock hospital, after a short illness. Born in 1942 in Fort MacLeod, Alberta to Clarence and Clarice (Britton) Warren, Buck grew up in Gladstone Valley near Pincher Creek on the Warren family ranch, attending Matthew Halton High School until 1958. His work career began in the Alberta oil field and took him to the four corners of the world including Mali, Turkey, South America, the Philippines and the Arctic. In his later career, Buck returned to Alberta to consult in the oil field and then spent years as the Co-op Lumber Manager in Thorhild, Alberta. Buck and family lived in Chetwynd, Vancouver and Kamloops over the years, with the recent years being spent in Thorhild. He loved the outdoors - especially boating during the ten years in Vancouver - as well as family time and hobby landscaping. A hard-working, funny, honest and compassionate man, Buck was a good husband, father and member of his community who will be greatly missed. Cremation, with a Celebration of Life to be held in Kamloops next spring. Details will be available in the new year. Buck has requested that any memorial donations be made to: AA (Edmonton Headquarters).
