Edward Joseph “Joey” Warwick, 55, of Vicksburg, Mississippi, died unexpectedly on Thursday, December 15, 2022.
Joey graduated from The Baylor School in Chattanooga, Tennessee, in 1985. An exceptional athlete, he played football, baseball, and ran track for the Red Raiders. After graduating from Millsaps College, where he was captain of the golf team, he received his Juris Doctor from Ole Miss Law School. In each of these schools, he made lifelong friends who appreciated his wit, his debate prowess, and his keen card-playing ability. As his friends said, Joey was the first person you learned not to play cards with.
Joey was preceded in death by his grandparents, Pap and Dr. Joe Vincent Lavecchia and Agnes “Nana” and Edward J. Warwick and his parents Ed Warwick and Mary Jo Lavecchia, as well as his sister Amee Warwick Spurlock. He is survived by his beloved children, Ned and Elizabeth Warwick and his stepson Drew Hulse, his sister Mary Sullivan Moore Dodd, nieces Joelie Moore, Sarah Moore and Cede Warwick, as well as cousins Lori (Eric) Voges, Sawyer (Allie) Voges, Callie Voges, and Turner Voges, all of Chattanooga, Tennessee. He will also be missed by the Gerache, Lavecchia, and Tuminello families.
Joey loved most of all watching his children play their sports. He was their ever-present fan, coaching them first, then supporting them from the stands. While he himself was an extraordinary golfer throughout much of his adult life, he put his clubs aside as they grew older to fully support their athletics.
