Warren Allen Locke-Wells, son of Everett Russell Wells, Sr. and Delores Costello Bush, passed away peacefully on Easter Sunday at Sherman Oaks Hospital, Sherman Oaks, CA. 

Warren was originally from Washington, DC, but relocated to Los Angeles, CA in the 1980s.  He resided in Van Nuys, CA with his partner of 16 years, Nancy Rubio.  He spent most of his time and resources in support of his favorite charity, Big Sunday.  His passing leaves a void in the lives of all those who knew and loved him.  Warren had a great sense of humor, was often the source of laughter, and was quite fond of playing practical jokes.  He could always bring a smile to your face.  He will be greatly missed. 

Warren is survived by his partner Nancy Anne Rubio, daughter Devon Adriene Locke, son Cassius Alexis Locke, grandchildren Mariah Natalie Locke and Ethan Cassius Acosta-Locke, siblings Everett Wells, Jr., Pamela Jennifer, Teresa Yancy (deceased), Bishop Paul Wells, Linda Wells-Knight (deceased), Eugene Locke (deceased), Roric Wells, and Bolen Wells, along with a host of nieces, nephews (he was particularly close with his nephew Lal Knight), relatives and friends.
