Lena lived a long 95 years, she lightened up any room she was in. She was such a selfless, loving, and strong woman. Lena loved bingo nights with her daughter, coloring, Betty Boop, singing Frank Sinatra, and Elvis, playing scrabble and fish fry Friday's. She was truly the greatest and we are all so thankful and honored for all the time we had with her and she is now reunited with her daughter Julie, her best friend, who she has missed every day the last 6 years.

Lena's funeral service will be held Monday, December 30, 11:00 am at the Paul W. Harris Funeral Home, 570 Kings Highway South. Interment Holy Sepulchre Cemetery.
