Our deepest sympathy. Prayers for David’s family. Love and hugs from ND.

I am so sorry for your unimaginable loss. I worked with Dave for many years and he was a remarkable person. My heart goes out to you during this difficult time. Sending prayers for healing and peace.

There are no adequate words to express my sadness and heartfelt sympathy for the loss of Dave. He was a big guy who lived and loved big. May you know God’s love and comfort during this dark time. Dave will forever be in our hearts.

I am so very sorry for your loss.

We are so saddened by this news! Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Karoline and girls, Dave and Gloria,

We cannot express in words our deepest sympathy and love to all of you at this time. We haven’t seen Dave, Jr. for several years, but we have loving memories of him at our wedding (as a little 4-year old), at Rebecca and Tom’s wedding, at his wedding , and countless summers at the cabin.

We will remember him as a sweet, gentle and caring person every time we saw him. I have memories of watching Wimbleton with the Warner gang on the 4th of July at the cabin. He was passionate about the game, and his sense of humor with us all was a warm part of the day.

As lifelong Christians, we know that he is in God’s loving hands now. Dave and Gloria, you should be lovingly proud of the life he led . At this time as tears cannot stop, please know that he is in a place of love and peace.

Again, words cannot express our feelings well at this time. We love you.

Dear Warner Family!

I don’t even know what to say. I met Dave at Madden’s one of the first years he was a school counselor! He has been a wonderful friend and mentor ever since. He will be greatly missed. I know he touched many kids in his job. God be with all of your during this difficult time. I will be praying for you all!

I so appreciated Dave’s leadership, kindness and compassion. The school counseling profession is losing an amazing colleague, mentor and role model. My deepest condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues. My heart is heavy —he has touched so many lives

This makes me so sad. Bless you, Dave, for all you did for the school counseling profession.

I am at a loss for words at this heartbreaking time…my kids were all friends with the Warner kids through Day Care…Gloria and I have known each other for many, many years through the school district…. We are constantly praying and thinking about you all ~ may the Lord strengthen you all with His Love…

I am so heartbroken for the loss of Dave. Sending prayers and love to Karoline and the girls and the family.
Love to all!
Mary Wesenberg

I am so sorry for all that are grieving the loss of Dave. May you find comfort in your memories and know you are in the thoughts of many at this time. Sending prayers your way.

We are so sorry for your loss, our prayers are for you and the whole family

I was so sorry to hear of your families ‘ loss. I am sending healing prayers and comforting hugs to both Gloria and Karoline and the whole family. Hold on to the wonderful memories. Love and hugs, Wanda Ryan, Retired School Social Worker from PLSAS.

I am truly sorry for your loss. Dave was a great guy who was loved not only as a co-worker but as a friend.

I am deeply saddened by the loss of Dave Warner. I was honored to work with him when I was the Principal at Fair Oaks Elementary School. His caring spirit and love above self will always be remembered. Heaven truly gained a warrior and we will miss him dearly. My prayers are with his wife, kids and family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this truly heartbreaking time.

Karoline and girls, Wishing you strength and comfort through this difficult time. What a tragic loss!
Gloria, David and Joe, Words fail to express my deep sorrow for your loss.
Sending you strength and peace.
Jim & Linette

We are so sorry and shocked to hear the news of Dave’s passing. Please accept our prayers and condolences.

Just knowing what a close and loving family you are makes my heart ache for each of you. I can’t even begin to imagine the sorrow you are enduring at this sad time for your loss of David. I send my prayers and heartfelt sympathy to the family. May God bring you comfort along with your loving memories to cherish now and in the future. Love and big hugs. Alice and Duane

It still seems unreal that David is no longer with us. The Warner family was such a big part of my childhood and part of a unique family created by my mom’s daycare. I can’t imagine the pain you all are feeling as his wife, children, parents and siblings. I’m praying for all of you and thinking of many fond memories from the daycare years.

My deepest sympathy to David’s family at this very sad time. Peace be with you.

There truly are no words…I am so very sorry. My heart breaks for you all. I will pray for peace and strength.

As parents we never stop worrying about our kids. David was too young to leave us! We can’t say we know how you feel, but we can say we share how you feel at your loss. David was a wonderful young man. Along with Laird, who is the same age as David, we send our love to all of you.

There are no words! What a wonderful person with a brilliant smile and so much love for others. Dave will be missed and remain alive in my heart. He was a one of a kind school counselor who gave so much to th profession. With love amd prayers for you all as you go through this difficult time.

Extending my deepist sympathy to the Warner family.

Sorry for your loss. Our prayers and condolences to Dr Warner and family.

Our most sincere condolences to Dave’s family. We knew Dave as Mr. Warner at Oak View. He supported my three kids throughout there years at OV, especially my oldest and my youngest. His friendship groups were such a help for my oldest. And I can not thank him enough for his one on one support he gave my youngest. My youngest struggled with separation and I can’t count the number of times Mr. Warner would help me in the mornings with getting my kiddo out of my car. His patience and caring attention were so helpful. I remember getting emails from him sometimes where he would just update me on how my son was doing—sometimes it was to say he was having a rough day so he had spent some time with him or other times it was to say he saw him from a distance and he wanted me to know and feel good that my kiddo was all smiles. He always went above and beyond and I just can’t even express how sorry I am for all of you that he passed. We will always remember Mr. Warner!!

The Lord called his warrior home in an unexpected way. Dave is Oak View’s magician, riddler, jokester, music man, cheerleader, and friend. A day doesn’t go by without a bright smile or a “did you fill out a drop today?” He will be remembered by so many for his wise counsel and advice. My deepest symptoms for your family during this time of mourning. May you have moments of laughter and beautiful memories flood your days. Maiya and Esme, my students (4th graders) want you to know they are thinking of you. They heard stories of you and are sad with you.

Yes I am one of the 4 graders in Ms. Eckdahl’s class and I wish u guys the best of luck and stay strong and stay positive and never give up – Cally (One of the 4 graders)

Dear Warners, we are so deeply saddened by your loss of Dave. We are praying that you find peace and strength in this time.

We are keeping you in our prayers as you are going through this difficult time in your lives.
Sending love, comfort, and strength,
Jim and Sharon Fitzsimmons

We are sorry for your loss, we offer prayers and condolences to you and your family

My heart is heavy for the loss in the lives of all those who loved Dave. Through his work and personal life Dave has left a legacy of love. May that love comfort and sustain you during this deep grief and may you find peace in the midst of the sadness.

I worked with Karoline for a few years at Jeffers Pond Elementary prior to this year. I am just heartbroken for her and the girls. Extending my deepest sympathy and sending prayers for peace, strength, and healing to your entire family.

So sorry for your loss. Our deepest sympathy to your families. May you have moments of laughter and many great memories and pray you will find peace and comfort and strength from the Lord at this time.

We are so sorry for the loss of your loved one. We are offering prayers for strength, comfort and peace in the days to come.

Warner Family: I only knew Dave through the MN School Counselors Conferences, but he was so warm and welcoming, kind and helpful, and memorable in so many good ways. Once, we ended up seated next to each other on a flight, and had a delightful talk the whole way. I can only imagine the hole his loving absence leaves, but know there are many wonderful memories. God bless you all. I’m so sorry for your loss.

I am devastated and so sorry to learn of David’s passing. My heart breaks for Karoline, Maiya, Esme and the whole Warner family. David was such a uniquely kind and genuine guy. We shared a love of retro arcade games and had both recently purchased the same cabinet with 5k games we grew up with. We’d compare notes on which games Millie or Esme enjoyed playing with us the most. It became a new way during the pandemic for both of us to bond with our girls at home. David was always in good spirits with a great, big smile on his face. I can only imagine the tremendous impact he had on so many lives thru his school and was happy to see he was recently recognized for it. Not many of us get to impact others the way David did thru his work. I hope David’s life and memory can be a blessing to you and the whole Warner family….

I am deeply saddened by the sudden death of Dave. Though now retired, I worked with Dave in Osseo Schools for many years. Dave always greeted everyone with a smile. He was one of the kindest and gentlest men I have ever met who shared his love with his students, staff and co-workers. My sincere condolences and prayers go out to his family. Dave will be fondly remembered by all who knew him.

My heart breaks for all of you. Such an unimaginable loss. Our deepest sympathy.

We are so incredibly sorry for the devastating loss of Dave. The heartbreak so many are feeling and loss for words is just so big. Chase and I knew Dave as Mr Warner at Oak View. He was a cornerstone for Chase in first and second grade. He vividly and very fondly smiled when I mentioned his name. Then had many tears as I explained of his sudden passing. Chase (now in 6th grade) and I talked this loss through at length when we learned. We kept asking ourselves, what would Mr Warner tell us? ♥️ It is beyond an awesome impression that Mr Warner left on Chase’s heart. God truly called one of the AMAZING ones home a bit too soon. We will keep you all in our hearts and prayers as you process through this great big loss. To know Mr Warner, was to love Mr Warner.
Much love all the way from El Paso, Texas!
The Haas Family

Gloria and Family,
How sad we were to hear of your son’s passing. We did not know him but he must have been an amazing person. Always be proud of his accomplishments and keep his memory in your heart. Our sympathies to you and Dave and to his wife and children. Bless you all!
Butch & Pat Hansen

Our hearts are saddened by Mr Warner’s passing. Our girls were recipients of his kindness and love. As parents we appreciated his insights and support. Our entire family benefited from his smile and council. Thank you for sharing him with us. He made this world a better place.

Karoline, I am so sorry, my heart breaks for you and your girls. I am sending love, hugs and alot of strength to get through this unimaginable time.

I am so very sorry to hear about Dave’s passing. Dave served as a school counseling internship supervisor for me many years ago. I learned so much from him and really respected him. I could tell even from my short time with him, that he was an amazing person in and outside of the work setting. Many thoughts and prayers go out to Dave’s wife, girls and rest of the family.

Karoline and girls,
My deepest sympathies on your sudden loss. I will always remember Dave’s smiling, positive attitude from the sidelines when I coached Maiya in softball. My thoughts and prayers are with you all!

My deepest sympathies to Dave’s family. Though we didn’t know each other well, the school counseling community is relatively small. Dave’s passion for the profession and his students was on display at the conferences where we encountered each other.

We are very saddened to hear of Cousin David’s passing. We have lots of good memories that will not be forgotten. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.

Dear Family of Dave Warner,

We have never met and Dave most likely never mentioned me. I worked with Dave at Fair Oaks and then at Oak View. I remember Dave’s passion for serving, comforting and bringing joy to not only the kids but to the staff. Hearing of his passing has been disturbing to know that so many will not be able to meet or know his loving gentle and caring personality. He was a gentle, joyful giant of a man that cared so much for so many. I did not know much about you from the years I worked with Dave other than if he loved and cared for the students and staff as he did, he loved and cared for you even more.

God’s peace be with you until you are reunited again with him in the presence of our Savior.

Words can not express how sad we feel for your loss of Dave. We are holding the whole family in our thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
Leanne and Jack

The world has lost an amazing human being. His kind & gentle soul touched so many. May his memories bring you comfort & know those he helped will treasure his thoughtful words. Prayers to your family.

I have a very heavy heart thinking of your huge loss.
You are all blessed with tremendous memories.
God Bless…..

Dear family of David,
Karoline and girls. Gloria and David, Joe and family,
Our thoughts of sympathy and prayers for healing are with you all. David was a wonderfully kind and generous man., beloved by so many who crossed his path. May your memories give you peace.
In heartfelt sympathy,
Dean and Deborah Davis

The searing pain we feel in our hearts when a loved one dies suddenly is the high price we pay for loving so deeply. Cry as you will need to help dissolve your pain, but above all remember with joy David’s life with you. Share these memories with each other. Through these precious memories he will be with you forever. Blessings and peace!

Thoughts and prayers to the entire Warner family at this difficult time. I was a classmate and teammate of Dave’s at Prior Lake. I have great memories of talking MN sports, playing on teams together and growing up in Prior Lake with Dave. Dave was a great guy to All and I am thankful for knowing him.

My condolences to all of you that Dave “treasured in his heart”. I had the privilege of working with Dave for many years in his various roles on the MSCA Board. He was a delight to be around. I always looked forward to catching up with Dave at our annual spring conference at Maddens. He was such a proud husband and father, always willing to share the joy his family brought him. He had such a big heart and impact on those within his
sphere of influence. He touched so many in big and small ways. His passing will leave a big hole in many lives. May God bless you as you grieve his loss.

We are extremely sorry for your loss. Sending prayers for you and the whole family.

I worked with Dave many years ago and he left indelible mark on my heart for the way that he approached students and staff. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

May you find comfort and strength in the love you have for Dave- husband, son, father, brother. Thinking of your family.

Karoline and family, our deepest sympathy and prayers go out to you. We can’t imagine how difficult this is for you. We hope you can find comfort and peace in the love that surrounds you through family and friends in the days ahead. Dave will be greatly missed and his legacy lives on in what he has imparted to all of you. We are so very sorry for your loss. Wishing you God’s unending peace!

We were shocked and saddened to hear of Dave’s passing. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the Warner family at this unbelievably difficult time. May the Lord grant you His peace.

Jim and Lynda Bickett

Dear Karoline,
I am so sorry for your loss. I did not know Dave but am sure he was an awesome man . Words are inadequate but know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Lee Shimek

Karoline, Maiya and Esme,
I cannot even begin to express my sadness for your loss. The words truly pale in comparison to the sorry I’m feeling for all of you at this time. I know Dave was an incredible husband and father and that he was so very proud of each of you; he showed it with his actions and with his gentle smile. I pray the Lord continues to walk by your side, giving you the strength to endure this new path in life. May He grant you peace with each passing day, knowing Dave will always be with you …

Warners , I am so very sorry for your loss of Dave. Hoping the pain and sorrow is eased by the great memories of Dave’s life/love and fun he has had with all. Sending prayers to you all.

Dear Warner Family,

I am incredibly sorry to hear about your loss. I knew Dave when I was a 6th grade teacher at Oak View. He was such a great role model for the students and staff alike. One of my favorite things that he did with the students was reciting the “I am Special” poem/chant. Every time he led it I could see the confidence the students gained in the power of saying those words. He was an incredible person and will truly be missed by so many.

We send our deepest sympathy. We were so saddened to hear of your unimaginable loss, and our hearts go out to you and the family. We didn’t know David, but I can still hear you Gloria, talking about him at Book Club. Please know that we hold your family in our thoughts and prayers.

Sadly Dave is gone. The best of memories of him are never forgotton. May you find peace knowing others deeply care for all of you and your family.

Our hearts break for all of your family at the sudden loss of Dave. We pray that God will comfort you and give you strength.

I was so fortunate to meet Dave and work with him for the past 2 years at Oak View as he was part of my professional development group. He was so warm and funny! His care for his family and his students was abundant and obvious. I am deeply saddened to know that I won’t see him next time I am in Minnesota. I am thankful to have known him; I will keep the things he taught me.

I am so incredibly sorry for your sudden and deep loss. May the sweet memories of him and the love you had for him bring you comfort in the hard days and moments ahead. I knew Dave from the school counseling world. It’s hard to pinpoint when we met as he always seemed to be part of that segment of our worlds. He was a fierce advocate for students and the profession. He was always fun to see as our school counseling events and his love for his own family was evident. I always enjoyed seeing him and catching up. His absence will leave a tremendous hole in your lives and also in the lives of his school counseling colleagues from across our state. We are saddened by his loss as well and our hearts go out to his family and the rest of those who loved him.
