Brenda was born in Fort Dodge, Iowa, on January 4, 1961. She was later united in marriage with Michael Lentsch Sr. on February 3, 1977. Together they created a family of six kids and 17 grandchildren and have celebrated 45 years of marriage. Brenda touched many lives and is known for her caring and giving spirit. Much of her time was spent with grandkids and doing her nails. When it came to her faith, Brenda was a faithful servant and a powerful woman of God. You could find her reading the Bible or singing worship songs. Brenda loved giving and receiving blankets and pajamas as gifts, especially during her favorite holiday, Christmas. Even if you didn't know Brenda personally, many considered her as a good friend with a motherly spirit.

Brenda is survived by her husband Michael Lentsch Sr.; children Michael Jr. (Elizabeth) Lentsch, Brandy (Andrew) Hoover, Mark (Jennifer) Lentsch, Julie Lentsch, Danial Lentsch, and Kortney Lentsch; and 17 grandchildren. She is also survived by siblings Penny Wilson, Robin (Randy) VanLaningham, Starla Sweeney, Gene (Kim) Geopfert, Carla (Teddy) Lentsch, and many nieces, nephews, great nieces, and great nephews.

Brenda has been preceded in death by her mother Geraldine (Paulson) Bass, father Eugene Geopfert, stepfather Sid Bass and brother Bradley Geopfert.

1 Peter 3:12 "For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous and His ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil."
