Lenz, age 93, of Pierre, SD formerly of Wolsey, SD, passed away on Tuesday, December 1, 2015 at Avera Maryhouse in Pierre, SD. Her funeral service was Monday, December 7, 2015 at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Wolsey, with burial at St. John’s Lutheran Cemetery in Wolsey. Malinda Martha Liebnow (Lenz), the daughter of William Herman and Augusta Emilia Anna (Eichstadt) Liebnow, was born on June 1, 1922 in rural Wolsey, SD. Malinda and her sister, Edna (Overbay), grew up on the family farm nine miles west of Wolsey. Her favorite memory was helping her dad by bringing fresh teams of horses out to the field while he was working. Malinda’s favorite pastime was riding her horse, Dan. Malinda attended Updike School (grades 1-6), Parochial German School in Wolsey (Grades 6-7), and Sand Creek School (grades 9-12). Malinda often talked about how her dad would bundle her and her sister up in the winter and they would ride in the back of a wagon pulled by a team of horses nine miles into Wolsey on Mondays and Fridays to attend school. After Malinda graduated from Sand Creek, she went to Omaha, NE for five months to learn teletype communication. From there she went to Dayton, OH to work at the Wright Field Airforce Base. Malinda married DeWitt Ellsworth Nickle in early 1947 in Dayton. Edna Liebnow and Harold Overbay stood up for them. Later that year, Edna and Harold married. From Malinda’s and Dewitt’s union were born Duane Allen and Shirley Anne Nickle. They lived in Brookville until the fall of 1955 where Malinda worked for the McCalls Corporation. Malinda returned to South Dakota in 1955 and worked at the NE National Bank in Huron for 2 years. She and John H. H. Lenz married in1957 and lived in Wolsey, SD for 5 years. John and Duane built the family home nine miles west of Wolsey. They were blessed with three children: Kenneth John, LaVern William, and Mary Alice Lenz. Malinda enjoyed collecting recipes (everyone had to be quiet when the Neighbor Lady was on the radio so Mom could write down the recipes!), baking (she always had cookies hidden somewhere), sewing, quilting, gardening, and painting ceramics. She sewed clothes and quilts for her children, as well as quilts for the Lutheran World Relief. Her days were filled with taking care of her children. She was so happy to have her grandsons, Doug and Dustin live with them while they attended high school in Wessington. Malinda was a lifelong member of St. John’s Lutheran Church in Wolsey, SD, LWML, American Legion Auxillary, and Wolsey Senior Center.
