She was a devoted reader of scripture and remained active with the Word Of Life fellowship, Gideons International, Glens Falls Christian Women's Club, and the Republican Women's Club.

In addition to her parents, Helene is pre-deceased by her husband, William B. Freeman; her daughter, Noel B. Fisk; her son, Dean William Freeman; and her great grandson, Everett Silas Burroughs.  Helene leaves behind cherished family members to include her son, Thomas P. Fisk and his wife, D.
