Elmor Warren

He was born on September 26,1946 in Indianapolis, IN, the son of the late Lynn and Iona Warren. He was the youngest of three siblings. He attended Shortridge High School in Indianapolis, IN and ultimately received his bachelor’s degree in Marketing & Accounting from Indiana University. He served in the U.S. Air Force as a medical transporter during the Vietnam War.

He married Lloyetta Jean Lumsey in Indianapolis, IN on December 22, 1974. After his honorable discharge from the U.S. Air Force, he was employed by the Department of Defense as an Accounting Manager for 33 years. He was passionate about his love for God and young people. He demonstrated this as he served for many years as a church elder, a youth basketball coach, and he led the charge to create a youth-oriented church service. He also was a dedicated volunteer who partnered with those experiencing homelessness, seeking opportunities to serve whenever he could. In his later years, he served as a devoted mentor for many young men.

He is survived by his wife, Lloyetta, his daughters Meredith Jones (Larry), and Allyson Thomas (Chris), his sister Geneva Warren, his grandchildren, Maya and Jackson Thomas and Larry, Lauryn, Lamar, and Levi Jones. He also leaves behind several nieces and nephews Leigh-Angelique Warren, Carmen Thompson, and Christopher Warren.
