It is with great sadness that the family of Helena H. Roach announces her passing after a lengthy illness, on Wednesday, April 25, 2018, at the age of 87 years.

She was a loving wife to her husband George for more than 67 years.  Together they built a life of love and laughter that began in Kauai, Hawaii and crossed the globe to Pennsylvania.  Affectionately known to many as “Feisty Little Momma,” she was a life-long learner, an artist, a dedicated homemaker, a creative powerhouse, and a fierce protector of her family and friends. 

Helena will be lovingly remembered not only by her husband George, but also by their children, Frank (Diane), George, Jr. (Jean), Christine Kerrigan (Greg McGarrigle), and Gregg (Jennifer). Helena will also be sadly missed by her seven grandchildren, her sister, Maria Heresa Gorospe Roberts, her brother, Manuel Heresa, and her many nieces, nephews and extended family.  Helena was predeceased by her five sisters and three brothers.

Relatives and friends are invited to greet the family from 6:00pm-9:00pm on Tuesday, May 1, 2018 at the Joseph A. Fluehr, III Funeral Home, 241 East Butler Ave. New Britain, PA 18901; and again Wednesday, May 2, 2018 from 10:00am, until the start of her Funeral Mass at 11:00am, at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church, 5194 Cold Spring Creamery Rd. Doylestown, PA 18902.

Her interment will be held privately.
