We recently learned that long-time member Helen Tillotson died on July 24, 2023, at the age of 97. Helen and her spouse Lee Tillotson joined the church in 1986, looking for “an opportunity to meet with others interested in a religious growth which is changing and evolving,” according to her membership questionnaire from that time. She was a steady participant in UUC Covenant Groups for many years.
Helen was a teacher and social worker, and enjoyed travel, cross country skiing, camping and hiking. Helen was born in Colorado and lived on a farm until the family moved to Eugene, Oregon, when she was 16. Helen and Lee met at the University of Oregon, married in 1947, and moved to Seattle following graduation. Sons Scott and Doug were born shortly thereafter. Lee died in 2003; Helen is survived by their sons and spouses, several grandchildren and great grandchildren.
