Helen Evans Rumburg, 100, (who, yes, liked to sign her first name with a lowercase h) passed away Wednesday, Sept. 9, 2026, at Rockland Ridge in Belpre.
She was born Dec. 27, 1925, in Jackson County, W.Va., to the late Dan and Carrie Evans. She married Ted Rumburg in 1949. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend with a wonderful, mischievous sense of humor. Her faith in Christ was an example to her family.
She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband Ted; her brothers Paul, Darrell, Charles Carroll and Don Evans; sister-in-law and friend Elva Evans; and nephew Randy Evans.
Helen is survived by her daughter Kimberli Constantino, grandsons Evan Bevins and Alex (Gracie) Constantino, bonus granddaughter Francis Constantino, great-granddaughters Violet and Charlotte Bevins and Maggie, Corrie and Lottie Constantino – who called her G-Nan or G – and bonus grandchildren Izabelle (Tim), Joseph and Nila, as well as numerous nieces, nephews and cousins.
The family would like to thank Rockland Ridge and Amedysis Hospice for the care they provided Helen.
Funeral service will be 11 a.m. Monday at Leavitt Funeral Home, 403 Seventh St., Parkersburg, with visitation 2-4 p.m. Sunday at the funeral home and one hour prior to the service Monday.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in her honor to the Benevolence Fund or Necessity Closet at Emmanuel Baptist Church, 1710 23rd St., Parkersburg, WV 26101.
