Class of ’55, Helchie was known as being strong willed and fiercely loyal. Her family was everything to her, especially her grandchildren. She enjoyed watching her husband play music with the Fralinger String Band and at many different venues, and she jumped at the opportunity to “sing” with him. Beloved wife of more than 62 years to Harry Murray. Loving mother of Susan Murray, Lorrie Murray, Harry (Lynn) Murray and Eileen (Jay) Billups. Dearest grandmother of Tyler (Kate) Murray, Jay Billups, Cole Murray and great Grandmom Helch to Addison, Makayla and Olivia Murray.
