Helen spent her career at Comcast. In retirement she kept busy with her many hobbies that included crochet, puzzles, attending craft fairs, and exercise classes.

She is survived by her children Jim Pyle, Tammy Pyle-Ruggiero (John “Ghost”), and Robin Massetti (Jim); grandchildren Alexis Massetti, Ariel Massetti, and Julian Pyle; great-granddaughter Gianna Rothwell; siblings George Parag, John Parag, and Richard Martin.
