Helle Martin

Obituary

Passed on

(Age 82 Years)

On June 22, 2026 at the usual time 9:30 am Helle went to her shed near the garden on the ½ acre behind their home. Some time later her husband Rich had occasion to look out the kitchen window – there she was: stricken by an obstruction to the blood flow in her brain, on the ground motionless unresponsive to attempts at revival.

In 1965 Helle emigrated from her native Denmark to join her sister Dorthe Lush, who resided in Vancouver with her two children.

She later met Richard Martin whom she married in 1972. In 1978 they moved to Winnipeg and in 2006 to Arborg.

Helle is survived by her husband Rich, two sisters in Copenhagen Denmark; Dorthe Lush, Lise-Lotte Schmidt and their respective families, including the previously deceased sister Edithe Guldbrandson.

There will not be a formal service, and for those inclined to purchase flowers. In order to convey their condolences, please make a contribution to a charity of your choice.

2026 would include Helle’s 83 birthday on July 31, her 54 wedding anniversary  on October 06 and the conclusion of her 20^th year in Arborg at home with Rich.
