82, of Charleston went home to be with the Lord on September 29, 2024 at WVU Medicine/Thomas Memorial Hospital.
He was a retired operator for over 30 years at Valley Belle (United Dairy) and a Sergeant in the United States Air Force.

Surviving are his loving wife of 56 years, Sharon Louise Wentz; sons, Edward Wentz (Jordan) of St. Albans; daughter, Sheila Lollar (Ray) of Charleston; brother, Danny Wentz (Becky) of Charleston; grandchildren Jennifer Lollar, Nicholas Wentz, Hunter O'Connor, Elise Wentz and Ellie Wentz; great-grandson, Avery Lollar and special great-niece, Jessica Wentz.

The family would like to say thank you to all family, friends and church for your prayers and support during the last several months. A special thank you to our mother, Sharon, for the love, care and commitment she gave our dad and papaw over the past 56 years and especially during the last year.
