Fontenot on January 15, 2019 at the Carpenter House in Lafayette at the age of 80.

Warren was a true Louisiana sportsman who loved hunting, especially dove and duck, and fishing, especially sac-a-lait. He enjoyed tending to his vegetable garden and watching it grow. Warren was also an avid sports fan and enjoyed watching LSU, the Saints, and his grandsons play sports. As any true Louisianan, he knew how to cook. His daughter's favorites were catfish couvillion and shrimp and crab stew. Warren will be truly missed by everyone, especially his wife of 59 years, Alverta "Chick" Fontenot of Eunice; daughters, Nanette Fontenot Frey and Lisa Leger and husband, Brendon, all of Eunice; five grandchildren, Katheryn Vincent and husband, Keith, Annie Frey, Kelly Leger and wife, Natalie, Hunter Leger and wife, Katherine, all of Eunice, Beau Leger and wife, Tobi of Vidrine; eleven great grandchildren, Michael, John, Sophie, Ross, Clara, Roan, Audrey, Grady, Weston, Landry, and Etley; as well as extended family and friends.
