Henrietta Lund was born in Chicago, IL on December 27, 1924, to Henry and Elisabeth Jarding. She graduated from Notre Dame High School and remained in touch with classmates and teachers all her life.
Henrie and Bob Lund were married on April 27, 1946, after having to change the wedding date several times due to Bob's Navy assignments. In December 1947, son Richard was born, and daughter Roberta, followed in August 1952.
With her fantastic relationship skills, Henrie built a thriving fund raising business that she and Bob ran until they retired.
Granddaughter Kelly was born in August 1977, and grandson Michael was born in May 1978. Bob and Henrie were loving grandparents and spent a lot of time with each of the kids.
In 1984, Henrie and Bob moved to Fresno. They were both active at St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church parish, acting as Eucharistic ministers and training altar servers. Henrie also enjoyed working at Macy's for a number of years, and both she and Bob worked as seminar registrars at various hotels throughout Fresno. She loved meeting people and making friends.
Bob passed away in January 1996, and Henrie continued working and serving at church until her strength began to fade. After that, she continued keeping in touch with friends via phone, letters, and their visits to her. After a fall in Summer of 2011, she moved in with Roberta and Doug.
In April of 2013, Henrie moved to Nazareth House. She enjoyed attending daily Mass and Rosary and all the other activities. After being housebound for so many years, it was a real treat to be able to socialize again.
On Christmas Day 2014, Henrie's earthly journey ended and she went to meet Jesus.
Henrie is survived by her son, Richard and his wife Carol; granddaughter, Kelly White; and great-granddaughter, Elizabeth White, all of Supply, NC; daughter, Roberta Carlile and her husband Doug; and grandson, Michael Carlile and his wife Theresa, all of Fresno, CA.
