Helen M. Freitag

Helen Marie Freitag, 89, of Beaver Dam, was called to her heavenly home
on Tuesday, June 18th,2024.

Helen was born on July 12, 1934 in Watertown to Harvey and Esther (Elske)
Kuhlman of Lowell. She was a 1952 graduate of Juneau High School and was
employed in administration with the Dodge County Farm Service Agency in
Juneau for many years.   She was united in marriage to Armund Freitag
on September 28, 1965.

Helen kept a very strong Christian faith throughout her life and was a
lifelong member of Lowell United Methodist Church where she was baptized
and confirmed in her faith.  She taught Sunday School and served as its
Superintendent for many years as well as singing in the choir.  Helen
enjoyed country living, along with planting and working in her flower
beds and maintaining her yard on her riding lawn mower.  She also
enjoyed nature, especially red cardinals.

She was an avid Wisconsin Badger fan, attending many football games in
Madison thru the years and watching Badger basketball on TV.  Helen also
enjoyed watching the Brewers and going to the horse races with Barry.
She loved to entertain and had a flair for decorating her home for the
seasons and holidays.   She always remembered relatives and friends
with greeting cards, always including a personal note in her beautiful
handwriting.

Helen also hosted her family on Christmas Eve for many years and it
became a tradition until her health declined.  She was an excellent cook
but her biggest gift was being a wonderful homemaker and a loving Mom to
Barry.

Helen is survived by her son Barry of Beaver Dam; her sister Janet
Carroll of Cedar Key, Florida and many nieces, nephews, cousins and
friends.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband Armund; brothers
David and William in infancy, and her brother-in-law Dennis Carroll.

A memorial gathering will be held at the Koepsell-Murray Funeral Home in
Beaver Dam on Monday July 8, 2024 from 10 a.m. until the time of the
memorial service at 11 a.m.   Rev. Renae Dymond will officiate and
inurnment will take place at the Lowell Cemetery.

Memorials, if desired, may be directed to the Lowell United Methodist
Church or the charity of ones’ choice.

The family would like to thank Randolph Health Services for their
kindness and compassionate care given to Helen the past few months and
various times the past two years.
