Helen Louise (Young) Fleeger Obituary (2022)

Helen Louise (Young) Fleeger, 83, passed away on January 15, 2022, at Butler Memorial Hospital after a short illness. She leaves behind her loving husband, Ronald Fleeger; her daughter, Kathleen (Fleeger) Edwards; and her grandsons, Isaiah Edwards, and Josiah Edwards. Helen worked along side her husband for many years operating a greenhouse and later started her own florist business. She was passionate about local politics and became the first female supervisor in Penn Township, Butler county. Loving to keep busy, she went to work at Salvation Army as manager at the Butler thrift store after her husband's retirement. When she retired, Ron and she spent winters enjoying the Florida sun in Naples. Helen enjoyed traveling with her husband and daughter around the United States and Canada. In later years, she took cruises in the Caribbean and Alaska. Reading, watching classic movies, and baking were among her favorite hobbies- especially baking. There was never a time there wasn't freshly baked treats in her kitchen. She will be missed greatly by her family and friends.
