Helen M. Bauer

Helen M. Bauer, 99, of Hanover, entered into God’s eternal care on Wednesday, October 15, 2014 at Hanover Hospital.

Born Monday, April 26, 1915 in Shenandoah, PA, she was a daughter of the late Alexander and Mary Shustack Stancofsky. She was also preceded in death by her husband of 60 years, William A. Bauer; a son, William Bauer; and sisters, Sara, Alice and Stella.

Mrs. Bauer worked as a dental hygienist for 11 years, and as a sales lady in the Hanover General Hospital for 24 years. After retiring from that position, she continued to volunteer at the hospital until the age of 93. Helen was a member of St. Joseph Catholic Church, and was a former member of the Hanover Lioness Club, the YWCA Wives, and the Elks Lodge BPOE #763 Ladies Auxiliary. She loved playing bridge, was an avid reader and enjoyed travel with family and friends. Helen was adventurous, had a wonderful sense of humor, was certainly opinionated but always knew that family and friends were the real treasures in life and loved them unconditionally.

Survivors include a son, Lawrence A. Bauer and his wife, Marie; and a daughter, Maryellen Eisenberg and her husband, Harvey. She loved and spoiled her seven grandchildren, 13 great-grandchildren, and four great-great-grandchildren. Her family will miss her more than words can say.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 2 pm Saturday, October 18, 2014 at St. Joseph Catholic Church celebrated by The Rev. Stephen Kelley. The family will receive friends from 1 to 2 pm at the church. Burial will be in St. Stanislaus Cemetery in Shenandoah.
