Helen May Glynn was born on January 26, 1936, in Stamford, Connecticut, and died on September 12, 2026, at the age of 90 in Sanger, California. She was a woman whose life, in its quiet steadiness, revealed a strength that did not need to announce itself—enduring, faithful, and gently sure.
From her beginnings in Stamford to her later years in Sanger, California, Helen’s days were shaped by the simple, lasting virtues that become a legacy: a ready warmth, a generous spirit, and a love that made room for others. In the way she carried herself through life, she left behind the unmistakable imprint of someone cherished deeply and remembered tenderly.
Helen is survived by her daughter, Deborah Gilman; her sons, Gary Joel Joslin and William Joslin; five grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; and her sister, Beatrice.
Pallbearers will be Gary Joel Joslin, Chris Joslin, Mike Joslin, and Bernie Roessler.
