He was born in Olympia, Washington and died in Seattle.

His granddaughter, Regan Westlund, attends Roosevelt High School in Seattle, Washington. Regan plays golf, lacrosse, and is involved in many extracurricular activities including: being the co-Editor-in-Chief (with her friend Sarah Rifkin) of the yearbook, a DECA competition mentor after scoring 3rd place at area competition (Buying and Merchandising Team Decision making with her best friend Alexa Damir), as well as being an avid Tik Toker. It's safe to say that Warren would be proud of Regan and her accomplishments.

In 1948 he was the strokeman of the American boat which won the gold medal in the coxed fours event.
