She then spent the remainder of her years back in Columbus close to her family and friends. She made many lasting memories with her family that will always remain so precious to us and last forever. She was the light at the end of a dark day and rock that kept us grounded when needed. She has taught many children throughout the years at Columbus Public schools as a Aid and also waitressed at the Columbus Mannerchor. The most important job was teaching the Lord to many people. She touched so many lives and will forever be in our hearts. Visitation for Helen will be held Monday March 16th from 4:00 pm until time of service at 6:00 pm at O. R. Woodyard Co.
