October 20, 2024 - Calgary, Alberta

Peter George Warren, beloved husband of Linda, passed away on Sunday, October 20, 2024, at the age of 70 years after a short but courageous fight against pancreatic cancer. He passed away surrounded by his loving family.

Peter was born on December 14, 1953, in Calgary, AB. He grew up in Parkdale and attended school there. After graduating from the University of Calgary, Peter went on to become a Chartered Accountant and a partner at Rahal Warren & Chugh. He later retired after being a partner with MNP. Peter was highly respected in his field and was known for his hard work and dedication to his clients.

Peter had many passions and interests in life. He enjoyed spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren. He also loved walking his dog, Harley, playing pickleball, golf, and tennis, as well as travelling. Peter had a mad passion for cars and participating in his Corvette club. One of his greatest achievements was celebrating 42 years of marriage to his beloved wife Linda. He also cherished watching the marriages of his three children and welcoming his five grandchildren into the world.

Peter will be forever remembered by many, including his wife Linda, his son Bradley (Pamela), and his daughters, Alanna Douglas (Kevin) and Carly Warren (Wade Hein). He will also be missed by his five adoring grandchildren, Charlotte, Mackenzie, Colbie, Dylan, and Peter.

Peter is survived by his brothers, David (Sandy) and Douglas (Patricia), and their families, as well as the descendants of the Miles family, and the Lang-Hodge family members. He was predeceased by his parents, William and Aileen, and his pets, Bailey and Lady.

Peter will be remembered for his kind heart, generous spirit, honesty, and unwavering love for his family and friends. His sportsmanship on and off the court and the respect his clients, coworkers, friends, and family held for him is unrivaled. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

"The love of family and the admiration of friends is much more important than wealth or privilege.” - Charles Kuralt
