Obituary

Helen Conrady, 63, of Elkhart passed away on Friday, September 20, 2019 in her home, surrounded by her loving family.

Helen was born on September 26, 1955 in Jacksonville, NC, the daughter of Jack and Connie (Kudlinski) Crosier. She married Howard Conrady on November 29, 1997 in Lincoln. He survives.

Helen is also survived by her father; her son, Stanley (Jamie) Crosier of Moulton, AL; her stepdaughters, Traci (Eric) Graue of Lincoln, and Ashley (Dirk) Aper of Hartsburg; her sisters, Kathy Workman of Huntsville, AL, and Patti (Tom) Lyon of Lacey’s Spring, AL; her 12 grandchildren: Christian, Ivy, Ronin, Willow, Lauren, Andrew, Parker, Carson, Avery, Nora, Devin, and Rylan. Additionally, she is survived by her faithful companion, Rambo.

Helen was preceded in death by her mother, and her stepdaughter, Michelle Conrady-Brown.

To know Helen was to know an instant friend. She was a caretaker, a defender, and a cheerleader. Throughout her career as a labor and delivery nurse she supported numerous women and families at their most vulnerable times as they fought to bring life into the world. Helen found the good in all people. It didn’t matter what path they had been down or what decisions had been made. She had open arms and a full heart of compassion.

To know Helen was to know that more than anything, she adored her family and dearest friends. To them, she was the constant that would always pick up the phone and listen intently. Helen enjoyed the simple things in life. She found joy and fulfillment when crocheting a gift for someone, fishing with her husband, being outside, or watching old western movies.

A memorial service for Helen will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, September 27, 2019 at Faith Lutheran Church in Lincoln. Visitation will take place from 4:00-7:00 p.m. on Thursday, September 26, 2019 also at the church.

Memorial donations may be made in Helen’s name to Faith Lutheran Church in Lincoln.

Services have been entrusted to Fricke-Calvert-Schrader Funeral Home, Lincoln.
