Lena loved camping, fishing, puzzles, gardening and listening to music with her husband Joe and dog Ariel. Her career consisted of retail sales at Walmart, property management and loving wife and mother. She enjoyed spending quality family time with grandkids watching movies, going to the flea market and making homemade tortillas and green chili. Many people received blankets as gifts (sometimes even more than one).

Lena loved her family and church family who all knew her as a caring, giving person. So many people were touched by her love. She will be dearly missed.
