Warren Kellerman, born in San Antonio with strong ties to his German-American heritage in New Braunfels, passed away shortly before his 100th birthday. Most meaningful to him were his family, his Redeemer Lutheran Church, the Marine Corps, and hunting and fishing. Profoundly affected by his parents’ economic struggles during the Great Depression, Warren was very frugal, working hard his whole life. In 1942 he and a group of 1,000 Duncan Field Civilian Aircraft technicians were sent to an air base in England, code named Station X. Along with the British, they kept aircraft flying during the early stages of WWII. While in the UK, Warren met and married his wife, Marjorie. At the age of 24 Warren joined the Marines and was later wounded on Iwo Jima. After his Marine Corps service in WWII, he returned to a renamed Kelly AFB and a career in aircraft engine maintenance, retiring as a middle manager. Warren was predeceased by his wife Marjorie and his son-in-law, Jim Lee. He is survived by his two daughters: Diana (Jerry) and Beverly. Special thanks to Dion, Jason, Abby and the rest of the team at Morningside, and to Dr. Marvin Moszkowicz. GRAVESIDE SERVICE FRIDAY, MARCH 12, 2021 11:00 A.M. CHAPEL HILL CEMETERY
