Helen Marie Evanoff September 1, 1930 – October 10, 2019 Thank you Jesus for giving us the life of Helen Marie (Marcinek) Evanoff and welcoming her into your Heavenly Kingdom. Helen was born on September 1, 1930 in Northwood, Ohio. She was one of nine children born from the union of the late Josef and the late Katarzina (Sosnowski) Marcinek. She attended Northwood High school where she graduated with the class of 1948. Helen married the love of her life, William Evanoff on July 11, 1952 in Toledo Ohio. From this beloved union came the birth of three children. Helen was employed as a secretary at various businesses in the area and finally as a Teletype operator for Owens-Corning. Helen received her religious nourishment through St. Timothy’s Episcopal Church in Rossford as a life member. She was a spiritual being, dedicated church goer and member of the choir for many years. In her later years, Helen occasionally attended Bethel Missionary Baptist Church. Helen spent much of her free time gardening, traveling, spending time with family and polka and square dancing. In her later years, she was a regular Bingo and card player at the Rossford Senior Center, and the biggest fan at her grandchildren’s special events.
