25th Wedding Anniversary--Lentz

Clarke Duane Lentz and Karin Stenstrom Lentz were married on June 3, 1983 at the Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Grandview, MO. Duane was born and raised in Hardin, MO, son of Gordon Clarke Lentz, Jr. and Bernita Meador Lentz. Karin was born and raised in south Kansas City, MO, daughter of Carl Russell Stenstrom and Betty Skinner Stenstrom, now residing in Adrian, MO. They met while attending the University of Missouri-Columbia and have been best friends ever since.

They have two beautiful, talented daughters: Catherine, 18, attending Stephens College this fall and Crystal, 14, beginning her freshman year at Adrian.
