Obituaries & Guestbook

Helen M. Bergeron, 85 of Sheboygan, WI was received in the arms of her Lord & Savior Jesus Christ on her daughter’s birthday, February 11, at Aurora Hospital, Sheboygan. The day she gave life to Janine; was the day the Lord gave Helen New Life in Heaven.

She was born in Lunenburg, Mass. on August 24, 1939 to William & Vieno Meyer. At age 11, she survived having Spinal Meningitis Encephalitis with no long-lasting effects.

She married Raymond Bergeron and had one daughter. Helen was proud to be one of the best female offset printing press operators in Worcester County.

In 1998, Helen came to Wisconsin to reside with her daughter and had many fun adventures with Janine, enjoyed dining on the chicken legs at Pizza Ranch, met some wonderful friends, enjoyed serving on the Altar Guild & crafting at Good Shepherd along with traveling back to Mass, visiting brothers in Virginia & Florida and her aunt on Long Island.

A survivor of breast cancer since 2004, she met other survivors and was part of the Pink Brigade who affectionally named her Mumzy, which stuck. Mumzy enjoyed sharing her favorite New England hotdogs with the Pink Brigade, while at Our Savior’s Lutheran & a few special doctors (& their staff) in her life.

Helen is survived by her daughter, Janine of Sheboygan, brothers Ed (Ruth) Meyer, Clearwater, Randy (fiancé Betty) Meyer, Seminole, Chris (Annie) Meyer, Gloucester, sister Sandra Meyer, Tucson, and Debbie Brunck (friend Bill), Rutland, MA, who “adopted” Helen & Ray as her second family. Predeceasing Helen were her parents, siblings Bill, John, Dan & Karen.

Visitation at Good Shepherd Lutheran, 1614 S. 23rd St., Sheboygan will be on March 22 starting at 2 pm with a Memorial Service at 3 pm, conducted by her pastor, Rev. Gugel. Helen will be laid to rest in the Fitchburg, Mass family plot after a Memorial Service in her home church, Messiah Lutheran, this summer.

Helen’s family would like to thank the kind staff at Progressive, the staff at Aurora Hospital, especially the most awesome Hospitalist, Dr. Elizabeth Nora, special friends Bill & LouAnn, Judy, Andy (who visited Helen daily), Tzer, neighbors Jim & Kim, Shirley & Doug, and Pastor Gugel for his many visits.

In lieu of flowers, memorials in Helen’s name may be made to Good Shepherd, Sheboygan or to the Sheboygan County Humane Society, Sheboygan.
