Helen’s Beloved Family
Helen Hattie Rezac was born on February 10, 1920 to Michael and Frances (Walloch) Hale. She attended Tabor Catholic School until the 8th grade. On January 9, 1945, she was united in marriage to Charles A. Rezac at Dante, South Dakota. Together the couple made their home on a farm south of Dante. Helen worked alongside her husband as a faithful farmwife. While raising their children, she also helped by milking the cows and raising chickens and ducks. In 1977, they moved into Tyndall.
Helen was a lifelong Catholic who held the church very dear. She frequently participated in Mass and Rosaries. She also greatly enjoyed spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren.
