Helen Hembree Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Helen had a warm and welcoming spirit, with a genuine love for people. She found joy in connecting with everyone she met-whether lifelong friends, new acquaintances, or members of her beloved family. Family gatherings were her greatest delight, and she cherished every moment spent with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her devoted husband of 65 years, Walter Hembree; her sister, Carol Louise Ritchie; and her brother, George Scarth.
Helen is survived by her daughter, Beth Hembree; her son, Kerry Hembree; grandchildren, Ben and Amanda Hembree, Brett and Jessica Hembree, and David and Britt Hembree; step-grandchildren, Lance and Kristen Spott, Courtney and Austin Rogers, and Lauren Poulos; as well as thirteen great-grandchildren and step great-grandchildren who brought her immense joy.
A graveside service will be held at Old Mission/Wichita Park Cemetery at a later date.
