Helen Louise Harris

Helen Louise Harris passed away peacefully and quietly on Tuesday, January 15, 2013 in the afternoon. By her side at the time of her passing, was her son; Bill Beam from Tucson, Arizona and her sister; Elsie Levario of Hanford, California. Helen’s life’s passions were her love for her family and especially her love of people and getting to know them and their stories. She served 30 years as an event waitress. She had the privilege to meet so many different people throughout her career, at the end of her day, her reward was the paths she crossed. Her smile was a sincere and genuine example of her love of people. It was her smile that made her so successful and well liked… One of her favorite pass times was bowling. She was a very accomplished bowler and won and received several awards for championships.

Helen is survived by her five grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren. Helen is also survived by three nieces, a nephew, two great-nieces and one great-nephew. Helen will be truly missed by all her family and friends. She will always be in our hearts… We love you!
