Helga Sigrid Bartelt

To my friend, Helga, Always enjoyed our talks about what Germany was like back in your day, and how it is now. You taught me a lot on what it's really like, thank you! I also remember your big smile when I walked into your hospital room with a huge paper flower - seemed to brighten your day. I am glad your pain is gone now, replaced with serenity and comfort. GOD BLESS YOU, Helga, enjoy your new freedom. A friend, Dean Buzzell

Helga I will miss you I only new you a short time but you were a wonderful Lady, I will miss our short phone calls every day just to check on each other. But now your out of pain. Love Kathy Rees

Sorry for your loss Bartelt family. Robert G Brown, former Hawthorne Elementary student with Karen.

I knew your mother, grandmother for many years. We shared so many stories. I was in Banking and she was always making sure I was absolute correct in my percentages. Every time she came to the office it was my delight. I am thankful we had the opportunity to have more than those Banking conversations. Most Sincerely, Bonni Tomczak
