Ms. Helen Mary Vasut

June 17, 1925 - June 25, 2019

Helen Vasut was born to Frank Vasut and Ludmila Vasut on a small farm in Robertsdale. She is preceded in death by her mother, father, and one older brother. She is survived by her brother, Charles F. Vasut, Sr., her sister, Emily Nelson, and several nieces and nephews. Helen’s childhood was during the Great Depression when “spending money” was earned by gathering potatoes at three cents per bushel. Helen graduated from Robertsdale High School in 1944 and was employed as a secretary at the Mobile Shipbuilding Company for a short time. After her mother died in early 1946, Helen left her job and came home to take care of her father until his death in 1971. She then went to work at Vanity Fair where she worked for twenty years, retiring in the early 1990’s. From that time she lived alone on the farm. Because of health reasons she moved in with her brother in 2017 where she lived until her death. Helen lived a quiet and simple life. What we will remember about her is her kindness and generosity toward others. When Helen asked how someone was doing, she truly listened and cared. Helen will be sadly missed by her brother, sister, nieces and nephews. Funeral services will be held Friday, June 28, 2019 at 2:00 p.m. at Mack Funeral Home Chapel with a visitation one hour to the service. Burial will be in the Silverhill Cemetery, Silverhill, Alabama.
