On Wednesday September 11, 2019 Lena Thelma Deckard went to heaven to be with family and loved ones at the age of 101!
Lena was born on June 4, 1918 in Warrick County Indiana to Della and Everett Skelton and was raised on a farm with her 2 sisters and 3 brothers. On June 20, 1935 she married James H. Deckard and they had 5 children, 7 grand children and 9 great grandchildren.
