Helen was born and raised in the Bronx, NY. She married at 19 and spent her life as a homemaker. Family was her greatest joy, coupled with a love for gardening, crocheting and knitting. When her husband died in 1991, Helen stayed in her home in Cherry Hill, NJ, living independently until moving to the Lutheran Home at the age of 95.

We will miss her loving spirit, her strong will, her sweet smile and twinkly blue eyes, and especially her last words each time we visited her… “May the Lord be with you.”
