Remembering a Foster Mother of 59 Babies

The Denver Post published a very special story about Lenore Schlenz, who was a foster mother for 59 babies during her time here. After answering an ad in a church bulletin asking for foster assistance Schlenz never stopped accepting newborns into her home for care. Many were there briefly as their adoption paperwork was completed, but a few little ones had a longer stay. Leaving notes with each child she cared for Schlenz was said to have a special bond with each little one she brought into her care. There is no doubt in mind that she will be remembered with great love by her daughters, sons, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.
