Lorraine Benike
    Lorraine Margaret Saxowsky Benike died Wednesday, May 28, 2008 at her home at Courtyard at Jamestown in Provo, UT.
    She was 88 years of age and died peacefully. Her family mourns her passing but knows that she is happily rejoined with her loving husband, Harland Robert Benike, who died 31 years ago.
    She was born and raised in the small farming town of Hebron, ND. She graduated from Kahler Nursing School in Rochester, MN in 1942; met the love of her life, Harland Robert Benike, while living in Rochester and married him in 1943. While Harland served in the US Army during WWII she worked at the Mayo Clinic. They were reunited in 1946 at the end of the war.
    Moving to St. Paul, MN, Harland graduated from the University of Minnesota in electrical engineering and they had their two daughters, Cheryl and Barbara.
    They lived in St. Paul until 1954 when a job transfer took the family to sunny Southern California. They purchased a comfortable home in Santa Ana nestled among the orange groves so plentiful during those years.
    The family lived happily in their Santa Ana home for 24 years when, in 1977, Harland died. Lorraine continued living in that home until she was 80 years old.
    Both Lorraine and Harland had been raised in the Protestant faith in North Dakota and Minnesota. The Benike family was active in the Lutheran or Episcopalian congregations for years.
    When their oldest daughter, Cheryl, attended BYU, she brought back the message of the gospel and the entire Benike family was baptized into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and married in the Los Angeles Temple. Both daughters graduated from BYU and were also married in the LA Temple.
    She moved to Jamestown Manor in Provo, UT six years ago. She was surrounded by a number of family members – her two daughters, their husbands and five of her six grandchildren lived nearby.
    Lorraine enjoyed oil painting, sewing, knitting, crocheting and cooking. She loved laughter, chocolate and being with her family. Dignified, hardworking, stoic and very private describe her personality. A mighty testimony of the Divinity of Jesus Christ was the mainstay of her life.
    She is survived by her daughter, Cheryl Nelson, Midway, UT; Barbara Horn, Provo and both of their respective husbands, Bob Nelson and Harrison Horn. She is survived by six grandchildren. Britta Nelson and Lisa Nelson, both live in SLC. Heather Stratton and her husband Barret; Summer Jones and her husband Brandon and Harrison C. Horn, her only grandson, all live in the Provo, Orem, Linden area. Juliet Wilson and her husband Sterling, reside in Menlo Park, CA. Her great grandchildren, Taggart and Beckham Wilson and Conner and Ava Stratton will miss her greatly.
