Ronnie Warren

William “Ronnie” Warren, 74 of Rossville passed away Thursday, September 21 at a local hospital in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Ronnie lived in the Fairview Community his entire life where he attended Fairview Elementary School and Rossville High School.  He worked for Southern Machine Company, Tuftco and Cobble Company where he traveled as a Service Technician traveling all over the United States and abroad for 18 years.  Ronnie enjoyed watching American Pickers, restoring, and trading Classic Cars and collecting Antiques.   You would often see Ronnie cruising in his 1934 Ford Sedan, on his lawn mower looking for a neighbor who needed their yard mowed or someone who needed assistance in any way.   He will dearly be missed by his family and friends.
