“As a young freshman in college, I let Reggie Warren talk me into betting on the 1985 Super Bowl! Not only did I lose the BET, I never paid my DEBT, and up until 2 months ago, he didn’t let me FORGET!!! I’m so glad I went to Morris Brown, and had a good friend like “Red Doc” who always held me down! RIP Wolverine!!! I will love you forever! 🖤💔💜respect.”
Traci Adams-ParishAnother added:
“Yesterday, I lost the best teammate I ever had — Reggie “Red Doc” Warren.
Red Doc wasn’t just my college mate; we both played center on the Morris Brown College football team, and that bond made us brothers. He was a great person with a big spirit, rolling around campus in that classic 1976 Chevy Impala. And nobody will ever forget how he used to sell those fried chicken wings for a dollar in the dorm — everybody loved Red Doc.We shared a lot of laughs, a lot of stories, and a lot of life. We just had a blast together this past October at Morris Brown Homecoming, and that memory will stay with me forever.”
Reginald Warren Sr. is survived by his longtime wife, Cynthia Blackshear-Warren, his sons, Camred and Reginald ‘RJ’ Warren Jr., his daughters, Regeah (Johnta) Carter, and Raven Warren, step-sons, Chris and Chaz Woods, former wife, DeAmey Demmons, grandchildren, siblings, and the entire family.

Reginald Warren Sr.’s contribution to the Georgia community as an amazing athlete and coach, and his kind nature, will always be remembered.
