Helen Driggs passed away peacefully on May 17, surrounded by her family. She resided at 5308 South Baywood Circle (1885 East) in Holladay, Utah at the time of her death.
Helen was born May 30, 1934, to David West and Ruthella Eardley. She married Leonard Driggs, and together they raised 10 children. Helen devoted her life to her family and friends. She had a gift of empathy for the private sorrows and hopes others carry and an ability to validate those feelings, which made her a trusted confidant and friend to many. We are grateful her spirit is free after physical limitations due to childhood polio and months of declining health due to a brain tumor. She had a testimony of Jesus Christ and looked forward to reuniting with her husband and parents.
Helen is survived by her siblings, Betty, Wanda, Eloise, David; her 10 children, Julie (Todd) Kiser, Dan (Dana), Warren (Cindy), Jane (Paul) Taggart, Paul (Lori), David (Mary), Ben (Tiffany), Matt (Allison), Steve (Amy), Andy (Natalie); her 53 grandchildren; and her 26 great-grandchildren.
Funeral services for Helen will be held Friday, May 21, at 12:00 at the Spring Lane Chapel (1750 E. Spring Lane - about 5100 S). A friend and family gathering will be held Thursday from 6 - 8 p.m. at the same chapel and from 10:30 - 11:30 a.m. on Friday morning before the funeral.
Interment: Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park.
