Helen Earlene Hofstetter
Hofstetter, Helen:
Went to be with the Lord on Wednesday, October 2, 2019 at Stirling Heights Long Term Care at the age of 96. Dear sister to Clair (Betty) and sister-in-law to Colleen Hofstetter.

Predeceased by siblings, Gerald and his wife, Helen, Ray, Joy and her husband Gord and nephew-in-law, Bill.
Helen grew up on a farm just outside of Kitchener, though most of her life was spent in the city, working a long career in Toronto at Tyndale University College and Seminary from 1964 – 2000. As both city girl and country girl, she had many treasured memories of the annual farm picnic back home.
Special thanks to the staff at both Fairview Mennonite Home and Stirling Heights Long Term care.
