Published in Today's News Herald on Aug. 12, 2018 - Lake Havasu City, Arizona - Helen Marie Gall, 91, passed away July 30, 2018. She was born in Glendale, California on Dec. 20, 1926, the daughter of John and Helen Young. The youngest of three children, siblings Kathryn and John welcomed Helen in Heaven. A charming romance with her high school sweetheart resulted in a marriage after WW2 veteran Stephen Dale Gall Sr.'s Navy service. Together, the couple had four wonderful children: Diane, Susan, Steve Jr., and John. The family matriarch, Helen was a special mother, grandmother and great-grandmother who always remembered everyone's birthday and maintained close relationships with all family members, especially her niece Lynda. Helen had many different jobs, but serving as a school bus driver for special needs children was her most cherished role. Helen enjoyed lifelong friendships with her fellow classmates from elementary school. Every year, they celebrated their December birthdays together. She will be best remembered for her sparkling blue eyes that radiated warmth, her great passion for life and her spirit of caring for her family. Helen remained active even in her later years, refusing to give up on life until her last day. She is survived by her remaining three children, Susan, Stephen and John, grandchildren Shannon, Michael, Christopher, Johnathon and Briella, and great-granddaughters Bella and Abby. The family extends gratitude to Hospice of Havasu for the wonderful care they gave to Helen. Helen's remains will rest next to her husband Stephen, near her eldest child Diane and beloved mother Helen Nutter. |
