Warren Allen Ross, age 56, of Dallas, GA, passed away on Wednesday, April 19, 2017 at Emory University Hospital from a battle with congestive heart failure. He was born on May 19, 1960, in Alabaster, AL, to the late Timothy Allen & Shirley Faye (Davenport) Ross. He attended school in Cobb County and graduated from Pebblebrook High School in 1978. He worked with Colonial Bread and General Wholesale before starting his own business, Hy-Tek Amusements in 1987. He was a member of Dallas Lodge #182 and a avid Falcons fan, holding season tickets for 20 plus years. He spent time enjoying water sports at Lake Wedowee, Lake Allatoona, and PCB. He also took many trips, including cruises, where he always planned the excursions. Unfortunately, he did not get to swim with the whale sharks! Warren loved his family and friends and would do anything to help as needed. He was the family jokester and had the unique ability to "counsel" family and friends without a license and/or proper credentialing. He truly was "one of a kind"
