Helen Bardy Obituary

Bardy, Helen Age 78, passed away peacefully on January 15, 2016, surrounded by family. Helen was born to Albanian immigrants, Dimitre and Sena Barde in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on April 1, 1937. A beautiful woman inside and out, Helen was amazing with anyone who crossed her path. Known for her exquisite charm, impeccable style, candid humor and warm generosity, Helen was the QUEEN of her own life and the choice was hers. She will be deeply missed. Helen is preceded in death by her parents and her brother Peter Bardy. She is survived by her beloved brothers Alex Barde (Judy) and William Bardy (Diane), a host of adored nephews and nieces, and many dear friends.

I was fortunate enough to have met this lovely, dynamic, hilarious and amazing woman while working at CNA. The "Sophia Loren" of Chicago is what I called her. She made such an impression on my life, and I'm not sure she ever really knew how much. She was simply the best! My condolences to her family.

Helen and I worked together when I was just starting my first job at Mitsui. We enjoyed our friendship for 47 years. She always had encouraging words and rote the most wonderful letters. We were always laughing. I will miss our wonderful telephone conversations. Love you. Mavis

I was fortunate to meet Helen when I was a young woman and she became a role model for me when there were few around for women. She was an extraordinary person for whom there aren't enough adjectives. For anyone who knew her no explanation is necessary and for those who didn't none is possible. My condolences to Bill and his family...she will be sorely missed by all who knew her. Love and God speed Helen on your new journey.

Helen was a beautiful person inside and out. My sympathies to her family. I had the pleasure of seeing her at the salon weekly and I will never forget our funny conversations. RIP Helen you will be missed.

Helen was truly a special woman. She had an amazing strength of spirit, and went through a lot of tough times with a smile on her face. We were her neighbors, and the sundeck of our building will never be the same without her. We love you Helen.
Rest in peace.

Just think being restored to youthful vigor that is promised at Job 33:25. We all can look forward to that time for ourselves, but also for Helen (Job 33:25).

Helen was a good and true friend. I met her through the Law Office Managers group, and we stayed friends long after neither of us was a manager of a law office. I remember our annual trek to Arlington Park usually spending as much as we won. I pray she will rest in peace.

Worked with Helen at CNA years ago and am saddened with her passing. She was a force of nature and I'll never forget that devilish smile and the twinkle in her eyes. We called her "Party Bardy" because she enjoyed and celebrated her life so well. My sympathies to the Bardy family.

The Bardy's are in our thoughts & prayers.
Sincerely,
Donnie & George from the old days!

Sincere condolences to the Helen Bardy family. Even though we share the same last name, I don't think we are related. My grandparents are from Budapest Hungary and my grandfather was an orphan so could not go back any further than him. Sincere condolences

My deepest sympathy to Helen's beloved family. How blessed are you to have had her as family. How blessed am I to have called her my friend. Her beautiful smile was the reflection of her beautiful soul and will live with all of us always.
