Very sorry to hear about Helen’s passing I remember her and her late husband Abe from my days in Lincoln, and I have fond memories of her hosting us rowdy teenagers who hung out with her daughter Marsha in our high school days. My sincere condolences to Helen’s family!

Absolutely stunned to hear the loss of Helen, boy she was an extraordinary woman on so many levels. She was deeply rooted here and cared for her state, Husker sports, and lots of close friends. I´ve know Helen for 66 years and will miss her and remember all the terrific experiences we shared. Her memories are and will remain a blessing forever.
