Obituary

Helen Marie Meade, 77, of Defiance, passed away on  June 16, 2012 in her home, with her loving husband Float by her side.

Our Mother, Helen, was born on May 31, 1935 to Sherd and Vernie (McGlothlin) Baldridge in Grundy, VA. On November 18, 1953 she married Float Meade in Defiance, Ohio. Our family remained Mom's focus through out our childhood, and well into our adult years. She greatly enjoyed the company of her many grand and great-grand children. When she was not doting upon us, she could be found watching a movie, or getting lost in a good book. We will cherish and miss her dearly.
