Born on March 14, 1950, in Reynoldsville, she was the daughter of Ica Mae Carlson.

She was a member of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church, Clearfield.
Helen retired after working a number of years for McDonalds and Wendy's restaurants. She also was employed by the Children's Aid Society, Clearfield in the late seventies.
She enjoyed sewing, reading, and spending time with her grandchildren. Her perfect day was when all of her children could be together. Her favorite saying was, "I love you and don't you ever forget that!"
On June 3, 1980 she wed her husband, Ernest Snyder, Sr. in Hyde. Together they raised their children, Charlotte Snyder, Bradenton, Fla.; and Ernest Snyder, Jr. and his wife, Chelsea; Michelle Orndorf and her husband, Travis and Lorrenna Snyder all of Osceola Mills.
She is also survived by two grandchildren, Ernest "EJ" Snyder, III, and Stella Snyder, both of Osceola Mills; one brother, Benjamin Carlson, Curwensville; numerous nieces and nephews and her two cockatiels, Charlie and Charlene.
Helen is preceded in death by her mother; husband; a brother, Lincoln Fleming; and a sister, Beverly Jean Martin.
