About	Warren Enyart, a faithful servant of the Lord, began his long awaited journey to eternal life on February 15, 2023. Warren went peacefully, without pain, with family and pastor by his side. Warren was born in Illinois on December 5, 1949 to father Warren Sr. and beloved mother Melba Walters-Enyart. He is survived by his three brothers: John Enyart (Hamilton, MT), Scott Enyart and wife Patricia (Mesa, AZ) and Steve Enyart and wife María (Albuquerque, NM). Nieces: Laura McCann and Lindsay Marisol Archuleta. Nephews: Scott Enyart Jr. and Todd Enyart, plus numerous great nieces and great nephews. Warren’s family moved to Parma, Ohio in 1963. He was a paperboy for The “Cleveland Plain Dealer” (early mornings, 7 days a week, frigid Cleveland weather, 100+ customers) and a boy scout who earned a “God and Country” award that helped lead him to his life of service to the Lord. He graduated from Valley Forge HS where he was the sports editor for the school newspaper and a member of Future Teachers of America. He worked in the mail room at Greyhound to pay for his college education. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in History at Cleveland State University and a Master of Arts degree in Special Education and a Librarian Endorsement from Arizona State University. In 1973 Warren started educating children at Palmdale Elementary School in underserved south Phoenix. When he retired in 2008, the school had changed its name to G. Benjamin Brooks Academy and Warren had changed the lives of hundreds of students. He stayed at the same school for 35 years because of his “HUGE” heart. He felt that was where God had sent him. He would wear a shirt and tie every day to present a professional image. In contrast, he could be seen in “Grinch” makeup at Christmas and dressed as a clown for the fundraising dunk tank. He continued to stay in touch with students and staff after retirement. Warren always taught a Sunday school class until his death. He spent countless hours on preparation and always used his personal resources to fund his work. Warren was a gift giver. He would often send the people in his life small inspirational items accompanied by a card with a hand written prayer. Other times, he would choose to be an anonymous gift giver to keep you guessing. He never missed a birthday or special occasion for his friends or family. He appreciated and identified with those who faced any form of adversity. He went out of his way to make people feel seen and special, because to him, they were. Warren moved to Albuquerque in 2016. He immediately organized a Thursday service on site for his neighbors who were unable to attend traditional Sunday services and continued to help on Thursdays after he moved. He later helped to establish a grief support circle for his neighbors who had lost their loved ones. Warren was described as a prayer warrior by his friends. He kept numerous prayer journals with the names of people he prayed for on a daily basis. Chances are if you knew Warren, he prayed for you in his journal. Whenever you asked Warren how he was doing the reply was always the same “All is well with my soul.”. Warren requested a simple marker with this Bible verse engraved on it to be placed for all to see: “Everyone who believes in Jesus will not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16
