Helen Rufener Biesinger, loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully on June 4, 2010. Helen was born on April 2, 1926 in Salt Lake City, Utah to Henry and Emma Rufener. She was the youngest daughter of seven children.

At the tender age of 15, she met the love of her life, Fred Gwilliam Biesinger. They married two years later on August 22, 1943. They were later sealed in the Salt Lake City LDS temple.

Fred and Helen had a wonderful life together raising five children; Keith (Ardeen), Mark (Rochelle), Helen “Sissy” (Gary), Tom (Hope) and Matt (Mandy). Helen was grandma to 18 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren.

Helen proudly served an LDS building mission to Germany with Fred and her children.

Helen spent her life serving others, especially her family. She will be greatly missed.
