     Lindsay M. Entz, 17, of 161 Ruth Lane, Jersey Shore, went to be with the Angels Thursday, Feb. 5, 2004, as a result of injuries sustained from a motor vehicle crash on Route 44.

Born Feb. 6, 1986, in Williamsport, she was the daughter of Eugene D. Entz and the former Michelle C. Stabley.

Her mother and father and a brother, Evan D. Entz, survive her. Also surviving are her paternal grandparents, C. David and Donna Entz of Salladasburg; a paternal great-grandmother, Laura Mae Swarthout of Jersey Shore; maternal grandparents, Sam and Helen Lowmiller of Mosquito Valley and Ronald and Linda Stabley of Pine Creek; a maternal great-grandfather, Harry Robison of Avis; and a maternal great-grandmother, Lois Stabley of Jersey Shore.

Lindsay’s education started at Salladasburg Elementary School in September of 1991. She attended Jersey Shore Area High School where she would have graduated with the class of 2004. Lindsay’s dream was to attend college and become a teacher for special needs children.

While attending Jersey Shore schools, Lindsay was involved in many activities, including being a cheerleader for 10 years and a member of the track and field team for four years. She participated in softball and assisted the varsity wrestling team at Jersey Shore High School for three years; filming all the team videos and assisting coaches in any way possible. Lindsay helped to plan the Junior-Senior Prom and the Junior-Senior Girls Powder Puff Football game.

She was a conscientious and energetic worker, having been employed by Crist Farms, The Crest Restaurant, The Gamble Farm Inn and presently by The Restless Oaks. She was also a caring and loving baby-sitter to many area families. More importantly than her school or work activities, Lindsay had a passion for sharing her love of Christ with others. Lindsay had strong feelings and was tender-hearted to both the young and the old. She took pleasure in visiting with her grandmother, great-grandmother and their friends at Manor Care.

In her spare time, Lindsay loved spending time with her family and friends, especially her boyfriend, Samuel Eck. Every year, Lindsay looked forward to hunting with her Dad and brother Evan and was very accomplished, having bagged a deer every year. Lindsay also had a special talent for arts, crafts and pottery-making.
