• Notes

  Helen grew up near the Coate family in Trenton, Ohio from 1920-1948. She worked for Maude Coate many years to help her with her large family. She was well accustomed to working hard, as she was the 2nd of fourteen children in her own family. When Maude contracted what the doctors said was "multiple sclerosis" and lost her ability to walk, Helen stood Maude on her feet and walked her to downtown Trenton and back. It miraculously helped Maude regain her physical strength. After marrying Maude's son, Warren, whom she'd known all her life, they moved to Columbus, Ohio where she lived until 1991 when she, her husband and son moved to Johnstown, Ohio. She was involved in her children's lives as class room mother and in the PTA. She was a President of the East Columbus Lion's Club Auxiliary as well as Vice President of the East Columbus Christian Church's Ladies Aide. She was an extremely gentle and kind hearted woman that was a loss to this world when she died of cancer in 2002.
