Helen received her education from Immaculate Conception Grade School and Washington High School.

On Feb. 5, 1972, she was united in marriage to Michael Nowak, at St. Ann's Church in Clover Bottom. This year, they were blessed to celebrate 48 years of marriage.
Helen was preceded in death by her parents; brothers, Frances and James Longsdon; her father-in-law, Julian "Corky" Nowak; and brother-in-law, Joseph Nowak.

Helen dedicated her life to her family and friends. Her desire to help those in need was something she cared deeply about and she did as covertly and as often as possible. Her laugh is unforgettable, her heart immeasurable and her spirit admirable.
A private family service will be held at St. Gertrude Catholic Church, Krakow, with interment in the church cemetery. Out of love and safety for family and friends, a celebration of life will be held at a later date.
