Warren Lee Graves
November 22, 1929 - September 15, 2011

Biography

Warren Lee Graves was born in Chico, California on November 22, 1929 to Harold and Ella Graves. He was the youngest of three children. He graduated from Lincoln High School, Seattle Washington in 1949. He attended University of Washington for one year before joining the United States Air Force in 1951 and served his country through December 1954.
On April 7, 1956, he married Dian Rae Eckern. In November 1961, they adopted their first child, Kirk Eaton Graves. In July 1964, they brought home daughter, Dara Lee Graves. And in August 1968, they chose their third child, Teresa Ray Graves. In 1978, Warren attended University of Redlands and received a Bachelors of Science in Business Administration.
With a deep interest in electronics and a good sense of mechanical and logical abilities, he held positions at University of California Lawrence Laboratory as a Principal Electronic Technician; Lockheed Missiles & Space as a Laboratory Analyst in Research; Fairchild Instruments as a Designer; and Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) as an Electronic Specialist.
Warren was an active member of St. Timothy's Episcopal Church in Mountain View, CA for 26 years. He was a vestry member, managed the printing of bulletins, served on the Organ Committee and as Folk Music Group Director, and was faithfully involved in prison ministry.
Beginning at a very young age, Warren developed a love of photography. He continued that passion throughout his lifetime and chronicled his many travels over the years. Upon retiring in 1991, he and his wife relocated to Georgetown, CA where they built their dream log home. They soon joined the El Dorado Sams RV group and spent much of their days creating friendships while traveling.
Upon discovery of Warren’s autobiography he had written as part of his undergraduate studies, he summed up his life best.
“It seems that my life has been lived in increments: the farm, the town, the city, the Air Force, and the married life. Each one stands out as an important developmental period that in most respects I would not want to repeat in exactly the same say: There would be a lot of things I would do differently the second time. I also realize that reliving the undesirable situations just to correct my errors is fortunately impossible, and not even worth the time to consider.
My purpose on this earth is to be human, not superhuman, to be an example of myself, not an example of what I might have been, and to expect the least from my family and friends, not the most.”
