(From Ann Stimler Hall, October 1998) "She did some book work in the garage for my dad. I was only about 8 years old when she died. She lost all three of her kids. The first one, Mary Eileen, I heard suffocated on talcum powder 6 months old in the crib. Helen was at church and her husband was home with the baby at the time. The second child died in childbirth. She apparently died giving birth to her third child, who also died at birth. She had pneumonia, I think."
 
(From Marge Randall, October 19, 2000): "She and my Mom were very close and I know her death was very difficult for my Mom as well as the rest of the family."
 
Helen died six days after contracting bronchial pneumonia and influenza, which also caused the premature birth (and death) of her third child, John, about a week earlier. Helen was 24 years, 6 months and 17 days old when she died [Source: Minnesota Certificate of Death No. 879 (1926)].
