WARREN BURCKHART SEILER JR. M.D. passed away peacefully in Little Rock, Ark., on June 16, 2016 at the age of 68. He is survived by his wife of 43 years, Laine; children, Warren III (and his wife Jill), Marlee (and her husband, John, and their daughter, Emily), and Michael (and his wife, Catherine, and their children, Bridget, Michael Jr. and Rachel); siblings, Catherine, Owen, Susan, and Timothy and a large, close, extended Seiler family. His parents, Warren Sr. and Victory Seiler, preceded him in death. Warren was born on Dec. 2, 1947 in New Orleans, La. He attended both Jesuit High School and Loyola University in New Orleans. After graduating from Louisiana State University Medical School in 1974, he completed residency in psychiatry and fellowship training in child and adolescent psychiatry at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tenn., in the summer of 1978. He then started his own private child and adolescent psychiatry practice, which spanned 37 years. He had a true passion for helping others. This passion motivated him to write and publish his own book, Battling the Enemy Within, which explains many of the concepts and tools that are used to facilitate healing in oneself and others. He was proud and honored to write this book and enjoyed sharing it with others. Warren was a generous, kind, and loving husband and father. He was most proud of and loved spending time with Laine, and their children and grandchildren. He thoroughly enjoyed playing golf and cheering for Notre Dame and LSU football. He will be dearly missed by all of his family, friends, and colleagues.
