Our sweet mother, Helen L. Lentz, 95, passed away peacefully to return to her Heavenly Father on May 17, 2014.
Helen was born January 22, 1919 at home in Willard, Utah to Ellis Peter Lowe and Cortineah Droubay. She graduated from Box Elder High.
She married her sweetheart, James E. Lentz, on August 2, 1945.
Helen worked as a counselor in the Salt Lake City Teachers' Retirement Office prior to working in the State of Utah Accounting Department, from which she retired.
One of her greatest loves was dancing. She and her husband loved to ballroom dance. In later years, she tap danced with granddaughters and a senior tap troupe. Helen loved to play golf and won golf tournaments even up to the age of eighty.
Helen was preceded in death by her husband, Jim. She is survived by her three daughters, Nancy (William) Callister, Salt Lake City; Sally (John) Forakis, South Jordan; and Mary (James) Cates, Rio Verde, Arizona; ten grandchildren; and twenty great-grandchildren.
A special thanks to Brighton Hospice for their kind support.
