The Walton County Board of Commissioners and the Walton County government family are deeply saddened to share the news of the passing of District 1 Commissioner Bo Warren on August 26th, 2025. Commissioner Warren was a loving husband and father, a dedicated public servant, a steady hand on the Board, and a tireless advocate for the people of Walton County.

Bo served with humility, integrity, and an unwavering focus on doing what was right for our citizens. He was a wise counselor, a good friend, and a leader whose legacy will be measured in the lives he quietly improved. On behalf of the Walton County government, we extend our heartfelt condolences to Bo’s family and loved ones. We will miss him dearly.

Arrangement and funeral information to follow.
