A woman of deep faith, Helen was an active member of Windham First Church of the Nazarene in Windham, ME, where she lovingly volunteered in the children’s nursery and the church’s missionary ministries. She also enjoyed participating in activities at the Uxbridge Senior Center, where she formed many lasting friendships.
Helen’s life was centered around faith, family, and music. She found great joy in listening to her favorite songs, attending concerts, and cherishing time spent with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
