A memorial service for Lorenz G. "Larry" Helfter, age 75, who died July 28, 2004 in Grand Junction, Colorado, was held Monday, August 2, 2004 at St. Joseph's Catholic Church, Grand Junction, Colo. There will be a funeral mass at St. Peter's Church in New Haven at 11 a.m. on Friday, August 6. A meeting with the family will be before the mass, at 10 a.m. Burial is in St. Peter's Cemetery, New Haven, Iowa.

Lorenz was born July 6, 1928 in Ogden, Utah. He retired after 30 plus years with the Upjohn Company and spent the last several years working with the Community Soup Kitchen in Grand Junction and was a devoted member of St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Grand Junction.

Larry died as a believer in Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. Larry's devotion to his faith was obvious to anyone who met him. He traveled many miles on his recumbent bike to administer communion and God's message to those in need.
