Helen B. Talbott of
Helen lived the Life of Love. The seeds she sowed yielded vast crops! Even though she knew this life was just a passage, she did it very graciously. She is once again united with her husband Bill and all others who have passed: parents
Surviving are one sister, Ruby Thorpe; sons, Vernon, Greg and Bill; daughters, Rickie Jenine and Betsey; grandchildren, Brooke and Kevin, Amanda, Alicia, Blaire and Will, Barrett and Chelsey, Parks and Kathleen, Pylan and Taylor, and Mary Catherine; great-grandchildren, Max, Hanah, Kera, Elliot, Logan and River; nieces Tammy, Regina, Robyn, as well as others; nephews Robert, Rudy, Tony, Gary as well as others; adopted daughters, Tonia and Lisa. With the aid of Tania's care, Helen went very peacefully. Thank God.
Helen was active her entire life. From a coal miner's daughter to a young mother of four children by 24! The never ending passion for life touched every person she was around. Her faith in Jesus never wavered, even when she lost her father at 74! She excelled and established the benchmark for motherhood, first, then being a virtuous wife. Helen became a brilliant accountant, bookkeeper, as well as so much more, it can't be listed. Helen's love of sports was ignited when she met Bill Talbott, her prince. They loved VMI and everything Keydet! Bill and Helen traveled everywhere the teams went.
