My interview with Helen Jolly

By: Rose Wangeman

Helen Jolly was born in 1992 in Albany, New York. Helen was raised in Albany with a very happy and successful life. Her parents were very strict with her 4 sisters and 2 brothers. Her childhood was a joy. Helen’s dad was an involved city man. He had a happy life with his wife, always teaching their children to behave well and be active in church. Helen was active in the same school K-12. Her school was different from schools around today. Girls on one floor and boys were on another. She did not have the chance to attend college. Helen has many loving friends, bowling together one night a week was always a ball of joy. Helen met her husband in church. In life, Helen worked as a book keeper. She worked at Citizen’s Bank in Albany as a keeper for a year. Helen was a Girl Scout for 3 years and knew all the rules. Helen loved her life and is always full of joy. Helen was wonderful to interview and I wish I could talk to her again one day.
