William Edward “Bill” Warren Jr. 71, of St. Simons Island, formerly of Waycross, passed away Wednesday morning, December 20, 2023, at his residence.
Born in Dublin May 4, 1952, he lived in Blackshear then Waycross prior to moving to St. Simons Island two years ago. He was the owner and operator of The Headliners Hair Salon for 51 years and the number of clients he served during that time is surely staggering. He also had a flare for interior decorating and had enjoyed numerous projects over the years including decorating the First United Methodist Church in Blackshear (which he was a member of) for Christmas as well as decorating the church parsonage.
He was a son of the late William Edward Warren Sr. and Willene Taylor Warren O’Neal. He was also preceded in death by a sister, Irene Rowell and a brother, Wayne Warren.
Survivors include his two daughters, Jessica Moss, Savannah and Sarah (David) Yawn, Jesup; his son, William Edward “Eddie” Warren III, Hinesville; a sister, Krissy (Jerry) Wilson, Waycross; his brother, Jimmy (Debbie) Warren, Jacksonville, FL; his former wife and friend, Cindy (James) Weber, Scottsdale, AZ; three grandchildren, Sarah Elizabeth James, Charlie Moss and Landon Yawn and several nieces, nephews and other relatives.
