Greenville Daily News - Fri. Sept. 14, 2012

SHERIDAN- Helen R. Wilson, age 87, formerly of Stanton, went to be with her 
Savior on Monday, Sept. 3, 2012, at Masonic Pathways, Alma where she spent the 
last two years and was given loving care.

She was born on Nov. 24, 1924, in Ionia, the daughter of Bert and Ruth 
(Perrien) Bailey.

On Oct. 25, 1947, Helen was married to Clare Wilson. He preceded her in death 
on April 29, 1987. Also preceding her in death were her parents; and four 
brothers, Donald, Gordon, Edward and Robert Bailey.

Surviving are her children, Karen and Curt Howell of Grand Rapids, Connie and 
David Byers of Mooresville, N.C., and Cindy and Robert Kellner of Conyers, Ga.; 
her grandchildren, Christopher Howell, Susan and Chris Wood, Nicole and Jeremy 
Canipe, Ryan and Gwen Byers, Elizabeth Kellner and Sarah Kellner, in addition 
to six great-grandchildren. 

Formerly of Palo, Helen moved to the Stanton area in 1952 and became very 
active in the community. She owned and operated Helen's Beauty Shop in her home 
for 40 years, was very involved with her daughters in 4-H and Girl Scouts, 
bowled on a league in Sheridan for many years and was a member of the First 
Congregational Church in Stanton, the Women's Fellowship and the Order of the 
Eastern Star of Stanton.

A memorial service beginning at 4 p.m. will be held on Sunday, Sept. 16, 2012, 
at the First Congregational Church, 305 N. Camburn St. Stanton, with Pastor 
Jamey Nichols officiating.

There will not be any visitation held as burial has already taken place at 
Sunset Memorial in Ionia.

For those desiring to do so, the family has suggested memorial considerations 
can be made to either the First Congregational Church, Stanton or to Masonic 
Pathways, Alma. There will be envelopes available at the church.

The Simpson Family Funeral Home is honored to serve the Wilson family with care 
and compassion. To leave an online message of condolence, please go to
