| Kevin Christopher Warnke
LAKE FOREST - Kevin Christopher Warnke, 61, passed away on February 8, 2021 after a brave but intense battle with cancer. He was born in the US Army Hospital in Munchweiler, Germany to John Joseph and Joan (nee Kent) Warnke, Jr. on June 8, 1959.
A true Renaissance man, Kevin was a PhD scientist who was devoutly Catholic, inquisitive rather than dogmatic; a retired Navy Captain with a passion for opera and esoteric literature; always witty but prone to come up with the lamest, groan-inspiring puns and jokes; and an endless fount of information on the widest range of topics. He was always a teacher.
Kevin is survived by his loving wife Anne Louise (nee Bell); his brother John Carson (Lynne) Warnke; his nephews Scott (Lauren) Warnke and Brett Warnke; and his great nephews John, Joseph, and James Warnke and his extended Bell family in-laws.
Memorial contributions for scholarship funds in loving memory of Kevin may be sent to Loyola Academy in Wilmette IL and/or to St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Dover, NH.
