Helen was a beautiful woman, naturally graceful and elegant. She enjoyed classical music; one of her happiest memories was attending the Symphony with her brother, Bill.

Helen & Bob were married for 70 years. After their wedding, they moved to Houston.

Her family loved her as mother and grandmother. Most of all, Helen was a homemaker, gardener, and gourmet cook. Her home was welcoming, interesting and relaxing, furnished with books of all kinds with paintings by Aunts and Uncles. Then there was the bay house near Palacios, Texas for fishing and fun.

Helen’s grandchildren loved her Sunday dinners. From the kitchen they could see the vegetable garden and Granny’s unusual plants. Then they smelled the aromas of roast and vegetables from the garden. Helen was a gourmet cook.

Helen and Bob traveled to many countries. They went to a Wild Life Preserve in Kenya, Africa.

They spent a week in England as guests at a country estate and toured Greece with Bill & Shirley.

Helen was a faithful member of First Christian Church. She showed love and generosity to all her family and friends.

A funeral service is to be conducted at noon on Saturday, the 5th of July, at First Christian Church, 1601 Sunset Boulevard in Houston, where Dr. Michael Dunn is to officiate. Immediately following, all are invited to greet the family during a reception in the adjacent Knowles Hall.

Interment is to follow, via an escorted cortège, at Memorial Oaks Cemetery in Houston.

In lieu of customary remembrances, the family requests with gratitude that memorial contributions in Helen’s name be directed to Vita-Living Inc., 3300 Gessner, Ste. 150, Houston, TX, 77063.
