GEORGE ROBERTSON WARDEN APRIL 4, 1940 - SEPTEMBER 16, 2011
The passing of a loved one is always sad and our cousin Bob Warden will be greatly missed. I am so grateful I had the opportunity to keep in touch with Bob through the internet. He was very interested in the family history and especially war records of ancestors like Great Great Great Grandfather William M Shreve in the Rev War, Great Great Grandfather John Milton Shreve at the Battle of San Jacinto, Great Grandfather Col. Joseph A. Nunez who was paymaster for the Union and his father Shreve Graham Warden and his Uncle Cyrus Ely Warden who both served in WWII as well as Uncle Harry Nunez Warden who was in the Navy in the North Atlantic in WWI -- We had exchanged lots of information about the families of Nunez, Shreve, Robertson and Warden
