Helen graduated at the top of her class as a registered nurse, a testament to her exceptional intelligence and tireless work ethic.

Helen's nursing career was defined not only by her clinical skill but also by the kindness and compassion she showed to every person she encountered.

She had the unique ability of making all those around her feel safe, supported, and valued.
Outside of her professional life, Helen was a devoted mother of three boys. She worked tirelessly for her family as a provider and homemaker. Helen was a wonderful cook, an extensive gardener and was always willing to bestow her knowledge of cooking and gardening to others. She had a wonderful way of always making everyone feel at home and touched the lives of not only her family but everyone she encountered.
Helen is survived by her three sons and three daughters in laws; Jim and Carolyn Machock of Carrollton, Texas.
