Helen was a loving wife and mother who put family first above all else. She enjoyed music immensely - singing in choirs, playing the piano, saxophone, and violin and was a member of several handbell choirs. She loved reading books and doing handwork, jigsaw and crossword puzzles and word searches as well as spending time with family members, traveling, and camping out. She loved spending time with the ladies in her sewing circle while crocheting baby blankets to gift to family and friends. With a passion for genealogy research, she could often be found delving through records to discover more about her family history & heritage.

Helen was an active member of Madison Hills Baptist Church where she belonged to the Ladies of Grace Sunday school class; the Just Older Youth seniors group and was a long-time member of the Worship Choir. In lieu of flowers those wishing to make a donation can do so to Madison Hills Baptist Church Building Fund in Helen's name.
