Warren Earabino

Warren Earabino, long-time resident of Cresskill, died peacefully in his sleep on November 9, 2023. Born in New York City, his family eventually moved to the suburbs where Warren was in the first graduating class of Paramus High School in 1960. His adventurous spirit led him to Southeastern Louisiana University in Hammond, LA where he earned a bachelor's degree and met and married the love of his life, Earlyn Von Hoven. Two kids and a few dead-end jobs later, Warren returned to New Jersey where he earned his master's degree in education and answered his true calling by becoming a teacher. Reminiscent of the 1970's hit show, "Welcome Back, Kotter", Warren returned to Paramus High School and was a beloved teacher there for 35 years. Summers found Warren managing various pool clubs, where he always had "jobs" for his daughters and their friends. His generous spirit, gift of gab and infectious sense of humor never ceased to brighten everyone's day. In retirement, Warren donated much of his time to the Office of Concern Food Pantry. A life-long animal lover, he and Earlyn rescued and cared for a vast array of critters, too numerous to count. Adored father of Liz (husband Peter Lehmann) and Jennifer (husband George Allen). Cherished grandfather of Sam (husband Andy Stahl), Cassie, Nate and Alex Lehmann, Matthew, Casey and Cali Allen. Great grandfather of Hannah and Jordan Stahl. The family will receive friends on Saturday, November 25, 2023 from 2:00 – 5:00 pm at the Barrett Leber Funeral Home in Tenafly.
