Harold W. Lenz

Harold William Lenz, age 95, loving husband, father, grandfather, and brother passed away peacefully and went to be with his Lord June 21, 2023, following a brief illness. Harold was born March 31, 1928 in Grandville, MI to William and Elsie Lenz. He married Norma Jean Lewis November 1, 1952 and they enjoyed many loving years until her passing in 2016. The couple made their home in Wayland and Harold worked as a farmer with his father until 1965. Harold enjoyed traveling and singing in the Wayland United Methodist Church choir in many performances.

The family is grateful Harold is free from suffering and reunited with his family who preceded him in death, including his beloved wife, Norma; parents; and sibling, Margaret Lenz.

Harold is survived by his daughters Christine Walle (David Nicks) of Pullman, Judy (Donald) Graham of Norton Shores, Karen (Treyton) Hiemstra of Wayland; sister, Sharon Smoes; brother, Ronald (June) Lenz; seven grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren who will fondly remember him as a loving, generous, and kind man.
