    My sincere condolences to the family. Dr. Warren was my primary care physician for many years and I always appreciated his kind, cautious, and personable manner. I trusted his medical judgment and valued the time he took with his patients, explaining and answering questions. He was one of a kind and I was saddened when he retired. The community has lost a great resource.

    Remember Dr. Warren fondly. Worked with him at Easton Hospital and looked forward to his cajoling with the Medical Record staff everyday. He was a compassionate man and physician. Loved his bow ties. May he rest in peace.

    We are so sorry to hear of the loss of John. He was a wonderful and kind neighbor to us, welcoming us to the neighborhood as new Eastoners. He will not be forgotten. Remembering the many times I passed him on early morning walks and the funny stories he always had to tell. Thinking of the Warren family.

    We will always remember John pedaling his bike all over town. Not only was he a good doctor, he was a model father and citizen. Our community was enhanced because he cared.

    How can one describe the sorrow we all feel with the loss of this beloved doctor and his long time companion, Maynard the dog. Ever since he retired we have missed him so much. It’s impossible to summarize, in a few words, the legacy he leaves behind. He possessed so many wonderful qualities, his photographic memory, his love for books, his kindness to all people, from the smallest to the oldest. He loved and showed genuine interest towards everyone, regardless of whether they were a cleaner, cook, volunteer, nurse, student, resident, co-worker, or the CEO. The same was true with his love and dedication in his profession. As a doctor, he was a pure delight to his patients. He displayed such a contagious personality, it was to be envied.
    We ask God to shower his mourning family and friends with comfort and love in this painful time.
    He will forever be remembered with the same love he gave all of us.

    Dr. Warren was our physician for many years. We have never met another doctor who would stop us on the sidewalk during a walk and check on us. What a honor to have known him. We were very sad when he retired as well. He was a very special person to us all. Our condolences to the family during this difficult time. May you find comfort with family and friends.

    Dr. Jon Warren was my doctor for many years. He was so kind, thoughtful, and I always will remember how he helped me over the years with my medical needs, living in Easton and much of the time working in Whippany, NJ. His smile, bow ties, and humor made visits to his office enjoyable. Eventually he saved my life with urgent hospital care, which resolved an edema related medical concern. I looked forward each day to his pleasant and caring visits and in later years passing him on the street during our walks. He is surely missed and our community has lost a caring and knowledgeable resource.

    Sending prayers of peace and serenity to his family.

    My heartfelt condolences to Dr. Warren’s entire family. As my Scout Master he was an instrumental part of my childhood and development. He was a great mentor, who helped teach me that good leaders were empathetic and inquisitive leaders. Any success I’ve had since no doubt bears his imprint.

    I hope his family and close friends take comfort in the legacy he leaves behind.

    Dr. Warren was our Doctor for many decades. When you’re lucky enough to find a doctor who excels at his profession but also brings quality human necessities into play, you never want to lose him. That defines Dr. Warren……a wonderful doctor with a compassionate heart for whatever a patient might be experiencing……no rushing you out…..really listening to what you had to say……adding his personal stories here and there to put a smile on your face.

    We have missed him so much since he retired. Our hearts are heavy since learning of his passing. He was someone we would have wanted to keep in our lives forever. He made us feel as though we were part of his extended family.

    To his entire family, we extend our most profound sympathy. You were lucky to have him, and he made it obvious how lucky he was to have you. There’s a brighter star in the heavens now, and there will always be a shining place in our hearts for our dear Dr. Warren.

    Our family Doctor. He was there for our entire family over the years. The last Doctor I know that made a house call when you needed him. He was in Easton Hospital for a bit and he was surprised when we went to visit him as a patient. We wanted to show that he meant more than just the service he provided. Always knew our names. And always greeted us with a smile. We will miss that bow tie.

    Andie and family. So so sorry to hear about Jonathan’s passing. At PGH, I always admired him for his unique personality, intellect, kindness, sense of humor, and ability to connect with patients and staff. In later years, I know he was a loving husband and father. I know he will also be missed by his many grateful patients and by the community in which he lived. Thinking of you in this difficult time.

    Dr. Warren was my doctor for several years, before I moved to Bethlehem.
    He was a real-life “Marcus Welby, MD”.
    Be at peace, doc.
    God bless his grieving family.

    Dr. Warren was a great mentor during my residency at Easton Hospital. He was a great physician and a great person. He and his wife invited me into their home and were very gracious and I still appreciate that. My belated condolences to his wife and children. May he rest in peace.
