Lena Lorene Roberts

Born in Prague, Oklahoma, she moved to Arizona at a young age and grew up in Glendale, where she became a proud graduate of Glendale High School's Class of 1954. Lorene was the beloved daughter of the late Albert Heinzig and Verna (Jones) Heinzig, and was preceded in death by her cherished husband, William Roberts.

Throughout her 90 years, Lorene blessed those around her with her kindness, devotion to family, and a gentle spirit that left a lasting impact on everyone who knew her. Her life was centered on her home, and she took immense joy in being a steadfast pillar of strength, love, and support.

Lorene is survived by her two children, Becky Sharp and Brent Sharp. She was the proud and cherished grandmother of Lauren, Blake, Casadi, Dylan, Emma, Brionna, Supreme, and Simba. Her legacy of love continues through her beloved great-grandchildren, Scarlett, Max, Mason, Emerie, Ariel, Maverick, and Skylar, all of whom brought immense brightness and joy.
