Jackie Miles Warren left this world at Redbud Village in Plainville, KS
on September 3, 2021, at the age of 85. He was born on January 17, 1936,
to Miles A. Warren and Ruth M. (McCauley) Warren at the Warren Family
Farm in Northern Ellis County, KS, with “Dr. Pete” AC Petterson
assisting.
Jackie spent his life living in homes, with Redbud Village (Rooks
County nursing home) for 50 years. In his early years, Jackie helped
clean sidewalks and rake leaves. He enjoyed sitting by the windows
watching cars and trucks and waiting for the trash trucks. He also
watched the shed door to see if the keys were left in. He always knew if
the help had a different vehicle or drove someone else since he loved
to watch the cars. Jackie was always telling Ron Brin to come down and
mow the grass. Ron was a former maintenance man at the home and Jackie
thought the world of him.
Jackie leaves to mourn his sister Pat Wendling; nieces Melanie
Wendling-Staab and Cassidy Pywell; his only aunt, Shirley Newell; and
brother-in-law Leroy Boucher; step-brother Wendell Ouderkirk; and many
nieces, nephews, cousins, and many friends at the care center.
He is preceded in death by his parents Miles and Ruth; sisters Helen
Keller and Jeanne Boucher; grandparents Ben and Tessie McCauley and
John and Kate Warren; brothers-in-law Ed Keller and Gayhard Wendling.
A graveside service will be held on Wednesday, September 8, 2021, at
2:00 PM at Mt. Allen Cemetery in Hays, KS. Visitation will be held on
Tuesday 2:00-8:00 PM with the family receiving friends 6:00 PM until the
