Later Life
Warren suffered from heart disease for many years, but he died on April 4, 1815 from inflammation of the lungs at age 61. He was buried in the former crypt of the St. Paul's Church in Boston. When church and family crypts were cleared by order of the town for public health reasons, later in the 1800s, his buried remains were removed to Forest Hills cemetery. Plaques in the church still commemorate him, and other members of his family.
