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.
