Olin R. Warren Jr., 80, volunteer baseball coach
June 12, 2022
Olin R. Warren Jr. of the Tradition Club passed away peacefully on June 12 with his wife at his bedside and son close by after a long battle with COPD. He was 80.
He was born in Camden, N.J, the son of Olin and Barbara Warren. He spent his early years in Audubon, N.J., and spent the majority of his life in Point Pleasant Borough and Galloway Township, N.J. Growing up, he attended Valley Forge Military Academy and played American Legion baseball for Brooklawn among other hobbies.
Mr. Warren enjoyed the simple things in life, such as a day on the golf course, a boat trip with his family and a good hot dog. Bermuda was a favorite destination with his wife, and golf outings with the fellas in Puerto Rico, Myrtle Beach or close to home were always welcome trips.
He enjoyed coaching baseball in Point Pleasant for many years. Throughout his life, he held many jobs, always ensuring his family was well taken care of and safe.
Those who knew Mr. Warren were always welcomed by his quick wit and his gift of subtly. Many close to him referred to him as Jack, a tribute to the humor of Jack Nicholson, who was fearless in pointing out the obvious. Put a Manhattan in his hand and watch the mischief come out.
Mr. Warren was a generous giver of his time and touched many lives everywhere he went. His family thanked everyone who has been so kind to them.
He is survived by his wife of 53 years, Linda Warren; his son, Kenneth N. Warren (Karen); two grandchildren, Carly and Sean; and his sister-in-law, Nancy LaVance (Fred).
