“Warren, thank you for your music ministry. You gifted us with beauty and a deeper faith. You taught us that when we sing we pray twice. We sing and pray now for you as you join the Heavenly Choir.

Katherine Korkidis wrote a sympathy message

“Our wonderfully caring and gifted Music Director passed away and we are at a loss. He brought all of us such joy with his sense of humor, his beguiling smile, and his love of music. We were his Choir and he was our muse. In the short time that he was with us he taught us so much about music. His love for music was infectious and his love for us was steadfast. He believed in us more than we believed in ourselves. He brought out the best in each of us. Warren you will be highly missed.”

Theresa Rehain wrote a sympathy message

“Warren was an amazing man and God blessed him with so much talent. He chose to share that in a way that glorified God in church and through the many ways he shared his talents with many young people. He inspired those he worked with to bring the best of themselves to whatever project they were doing. He will be deeply missed. Thank you Warren for sharing yourself with all of us. Thank you also to your family who allowed you to spend the time on all the many projects over the years.”
