Peter Keith Warren
December 5, 1953 to December 17, 2020
Obituary
Peter passed peacefully away after a short but courageous battle with cancer, surrounded by family at the Health Sciences Centre on Thursday, December 17th, 2020, at age 67. He is predeceased by his parents, Roger Warren and Nellie Warren (Hibbs) and other family members. He leaves to mourn a broad circle of family and friends who are left with many fond memories: his wife and best friend, Dorothy (Dot); children that he was incredibly proud of, Justin (Catherine) and Tiffany; siblings Sandra Hillyer (John), Chris Warren (Marilyn), Roger Warren (Sharon), Barbara Taylor (Wayne) and a large extended family of nieces, nephews, and in-laws, especially Tim Perrin, Jennifer Pittman, Jennifer White (Kyle), Ashley Davis (Geoff), and Donna Perrin (Rene) who were always incredibly supportive and especially during Peter’s brief illness. Special mention to his brother Chris who was always there for him from the beginning; his little buddy Luke; and many special friends near and far. Peter always led by example by being selfless, helpful, hard-working and honest, all while having an infectious personality and a way of bringing people around him together. He would go out of his way to be helpful, taking on any task with a smile and he was known for his consistent, hard work and ‘get things done’ attitude. He will always be well-known in the construction industry after spending more than 40 years in sales at Toromont Cat (formerly Newfoundland Tractor.) His personal connections there spread far and wide; even in retirement and after his cancer diagnosis, he still found time to make a sale. Peter would literally take the shirt off his back for anyone; he even did that once to close a deal on the spot. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, a service will not be held at this time but a celebration of his life will be held at a later date. In Peter’s memory, donations can be made to a charity of one’s choice.
To Chris Warren and Family
My deepest condolences at this time. May many pleasant memories sustain you in the coming days.
Dot, Justin and Tiffany. I learned of Peter’s passing and want to convey my most sincere condolences for your loss. In the time the boys were together swimming and beyond you folks were such good friends. Peter was a pleasure to hang out with while the boys were doing their thing. I recall and smile at the early morning squash games while the boys were at practice and so many other fond memories. I wish each of you and your family the strength to move through this. God’s Speed. John Neily

As a person you could not meet a nicer, gentle and kind individual as Peter. It was my pleasure to have worked with Peter during my time at Newfoundland Tractor( Toromont Cat) and I will always remember him as one of the best colleagues I had the pleasure of working with over many years. His contagious smile would always put you in a good mood.
My sincere condolences to Peter’s entire family. Your lost is heaven’s gain.
Dot and family – when I think of Peter – the words that come to mind are – respect, dedication, integrity, honesty and sincerity – all of which in the dictionary would have Peter’s picture next to them. I had the pleasure of working with Peter for over 40 years – over which time I dealt with a lot of Peter’s customers. One thing they all had in common was their respect for Peter’s professionalism and dedication to the job and their business. The industry has lost a legend – one his family must be deeply proud of. Peter’s legacy will live on………..
Helen and I extend our deepest sympathies at this painful time – carry your precious memories with you. God Bless
Roger and Sharon and family,; pkease accept our deepest sympathies for your liss .Take care and cherish your memories. Ralph and Ethel Hiscock
Dot and family – Please accept Eileen’s and my deepest sympathies on Peter’s passing. While we knew a lot of people in common it was only last year that our paths “officially” crossed. I enjoyed the conversations and selfishly will miss the opportunity to get to know him better. Trusting your memories will help see you through this painful time.
So sorry to hear of Peter’s passing. He was a great friend and will surely be missed. RIP Peter.
Tom & Jeanette Hollett

Dot, we are shocked and so very sorry to hear of Peter’s passing. Being in the construction industry we had a relationship that was both business and pleasure with Peter. Peter was always so helpful when we were looking to buy or sell a piece of equipment. After we heard the news of his passing we talked about many memories we had of Peter but especially the fundraiser we were involved with him years ago to raise money to pave All Saints parking lot. We had so much fun and then we had a big bbq after to celebrate our success. Peter was a great man who will be missed by many. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the children.
Roger,Sharon and family.,so sorry to hear of your brother’s passing..Keeping you in our prayers..

Dot and Family,
My deepest condolence on Peters passing. I am shocked and saddened of his passing and unfortunately I wasn’t aware of his recent illness. Peter initiated and completed a sale for me this past year, although it seems like yesterday. Over the years I made several deals through Peter, of new and used equipment. I will always remember Peters infectious smile, professionalism and his first class attention to customer service. Truly a gentleman and well respected within our construction industry.
