Geyer, Sr., her mother Irma Rivers Ganter, her father John Ganter and her sister Grace McCall. She is survived by her children, Ronald S. Geyer (Janice), William J.

She is also survived by her grandchildren, Ashley Nichols (Chris Bryant), Austin Geyer (Whitney), Branden Geldart, Raegan Geldart and great-grandchildren Meredith Nichols, Weston Geyer and Ashlynn Geyer, and nieces Michele Denis and LeAnne Reaves and many more relatives and lifelong friends. Born in Dallas on August 20, 1924, Helen moved to the King William district in 1936. She graduated from Brackenridge High School in 1941. She lived in King William for 84 years until her passing. She was very active in her community, serving on the PTAs at her children’s schools for more than two decades, serving as a volunteer for NIOSA for many years and serving on the King William Association board in the 1970’s. She was a founding member of her Bunco group where she was an active member for more than 60 years, and groups TOPS (Taking Off the Pounds) and KOPS (Keeping Off the Pounds). Helen worked at Ft Sam Houston as a civil servant during WW2. She was very proud of the King William neighborhood. Her neighbors often see her in her yard gardening where she always had a friendly wave and time to visit. The family would like to extend their sincerest gratitude to the nurses and staff at Trinity Hospice for their caring support and loving guidance. A Celebration of Life will be held in Helen’s honor on Saturday, October 17, 2020 at 3:00 p.m. with visitation beginning at 2:00 p.m. at Mission Park Funeral Chapels South.
