Helen Bobrowski, of Massapequa, New York, passed away peacefully on October 1, 2026, surrounded by the love and memories of the family she cherished so deeply. She was born on March 6, 1941, in Queens Village, New York, to Richard McMahon and Mary McDonald.
Helen was a loving and devoted mother, grandmother, sister, and friend. Her family was the greatest joy in her life, and she took immense pride in each of them. She was the beloved mother of Theresa Voyes (Peter), Mariann Pusateri (John), the late Christine Murphy, and the late James Bobrowski.
Helen was a cherished grandmother to Danielle Voyes, Bryan Pusateri (Linda), Taylor Voyes, Jennifer Pusateri, Amanda Fernandez (Eraldo), Matthew Voyes, and Nicole Murphy. She treasured the special bond she shared with each of her grandchildren and loved watching them grow, celebrating their accomplishments, and being a loving presence in their lives.
She was the dear sister of Mary Gannon, Dorothy Saporito (the late Fred), John McMahon (the late Sue), the late Rita Currie (Tom), Cathy Flanagan (the late Tim), and the late Jerry McMahon. Her family meant everything to her, and the memories they shared throughout the years will forever be treasured.
Helen dedicated many years of her life to serving others. She was a retired clerk with the United States Postal Service and later worked part-time as a receptionist at Our Lady of Lourdes R.C. Church in Massapequa Park, New York. Her faith was a very important part of her life. As a Eucharistic Minister at Our Lady of Lourdes, she found great joy in serving her church and her community. She also generously gave her time and compassion to St. Martin of Tours Parish Outreach in Amityville, New York, helping those in need.
Helen had a kind and giving heart. She was someone who cared deeply about others and was always willing to lend a helping hand, a listening ear, or a comforting word. Her warmth, faith, generosity, and love for her family touched the lives of so many.
Although she will be greatly missed, Helen leaves behind a beautiful legacy of love, faith, and family. The lessons she taught, the kindness she shared, and the countless memories she created will live on in the hearts of those who were blessed to know and love her.
