Helen Cecelia Ueberacher

Helen Cecelia Ueberacher, formerly of Brewster, NY and St. Petersburg, FL, passed away Tuesday evening, April 26, 2016 in Colchester, CT.
Born in Brooklyn, NY on January 22, 1914, she was the daughter of the late Michael and Mary (King) Meagher. Helen married Fred Ueberacher on October 15, 1938. The couple raised their family in Brewster, NY and retired to St. Petersburg, FL. At age 100, Fred predeceased her on January 16, 2015. They shared 76 years of marriage together. Although Helen had several part time jobs she enjoyed through her life her main commitment was to being a “Homemaker” in the truest sense of the word. She created a loving home for her children and grandchildren alike and they were among her greatest joys in life.
She will be sadly missed but always remembered by her son and daughter-in-law, Peter and Barbara Ueberacher of Dover Plains, NY, with whom Helen most recently made her home, her daughter and son-in-law, Lynn and Robert Coffey of Hebron and her five grandchildren Todd and Marty Ueberacher and Jeff, Diane and Kevin Coffey. Her granddaughter, Amy will be welcoming her with open arms.
A funeral Mass will be celebrated on Monday at 10am, at Good Shepherd Church in Brooklyn, N.Y., the church in which Helen and Fred got married in 1938. Burial will follow at the Cemetery of the Holy Cross, Brooklyn, NY. The Aurora-McCarthy Funeral Home of Colchester has been entrusted with these arrangements.
