In 1972, Helen began working side by side with Clifton and their 3 sons at Marsh Construction, as bookkeeper, consulting with clients and drafting house plans. She also raised a large vegetable garden and helped with horse chores with her daughter. She loved hay season, driving the truck while all the kids loaded the hay into the large trailer. Helen loved being a wife and Mom, gathering all the kids together to pick fresh berries or harvesting the garden for canning goods for winter. She especially loved when her grandchildren started arriving. She was involved in every event from motocross to horse shows.
