Helen was born on May 18, 1932 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Her parents were Derrel and Martha (Schroeder) Click. She attended school in Waukomis, Oklahoma and she attended Oklahoma A&M University in Stillwater, OK where she was a member of Delta Zeta.
Helen met Jimmy on a blind date in January 1953, they were engaged on Valentine’s Day 1953, and married June 14, 1953. Helen and Jimmy had 3 daughters, Debra, Cindy, and Kristi. Helen was an excellent seamstress making most of her and the girl’s clothing in early years.
She was preceded in death by both parents, brother Dallas Click, husband Jimmy, her daughter Cindy Wedel, and great-grandson, Jackson Walden. Jimmy and Helen were members of the Central United Methodist Church and longtime members of the Friendship Circle. She was active in church and loved playing specials on the piano.
She also worked with students thru CUMC in a tutoring program. Helen enjoyed baking and watching grandkids in their activities. She loved playing cards and dominoes with friends and grandkids.
At Legacy, Helen won all the card games. The only reason they let her keep playing was because she was the only one who could shuffle. She had the biggest and fullest closet (especially her size 4 shoes) of anyone around, but knew exactly where each item was located.
Helen is survived by her daughter Debra Pendleton of Dallas and husband Tom, daughter Kristi Walden of Stratford and husband Philip, son in law Billy Wedel of Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri.
