Helen M. Horwath

Loving wife, mother, grandmother and sister passed away Saturday, October 19, 2024, surrounded by her family. Age 79 years. Daughter of the late Emil and Theresa (Egyet) Moll, Helen was born November 12, 1944 in Saginaw, Michigan. She was married to James E. Horwath, her loving husband of 58 years, on April 16, 1966. He survives her. Helen was a medical transcriptionist at St. Mary’s Hospital and at a local Radiology office in Saginaw for many years.  She was a member of Holy Spirit Catholic Church, Saginaw Junior League, and the Twins Club. Helen enjoyed flowers, gardening, painting, the card club, and winters in Florida.

Most of all she wanted family and friends filling up her house with laughter. Her grandkids did not walk through the front door without hearing, “Who’s coming to my house ?”
