Obituary

Helen Krolick Vollmer, 98 formerly of Lewisburg, PA, entered her new eternal home in the early morning hours of March 13th at St. Anne's Retirement Community, Columbia, PA. Helen was born to Daniel & Mary Krolick in Frackville, PA. After spending her formative years in Frackville, Helen moved to Harrisburg, PA during World War II to support the war effort as a 'Rosie the Riveter' at Olmsted Air Force base. In Harrisburg, her best friend and future sister in-law Nancy Vollmer Brown introduced her to her brother and Helen's future husband, Charles David Vollmer who was a Major in the United States Air Force. Upon the early death of her husband, Helen settled in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania in 1958 to raise her three children. She was a proud member of the Lewisburg community including her time spent as a staff member of Bucknell University and as a longtime member of St. Andrew's Episcopal Church. Helen is survived by her three children and their spouses: Charles & Patricia Vollmer of Vienna VA, Daniel & Denise Vollmer of Tallahassee, FL and Nancy & Ken Witkowski of Middletown, PA and four grandchildren: Bryan Witkowski of Philadelphia, PA, Erin Vollmer & Leanne Vollmer Groom of Tallahassee, FL and Charles David Vollmer III of Ashburn, VA. She is also survived by eight great grandchildren and multiple nieces and nephews, and a cousin, Olga Krolick. She was preceded in death by her siblings: Ann, Mary, John, Olga, and Theresa. Helen will sadly be missed by family and friends. The Service of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 2PM on Saturday, April 7, 2018 at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church, 255 S. Derr Drive, Lewisburg, PA. Friends will be received at the church prior to the service from12:30-2PM. Interment will take place at the St. Andrew's Episcopal Church's St. Francis Garden following the service. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to St. Anne's Retirement Community, 3952 Columbia Ave., Columbia, PA 17512 whose staff provided excellent care for her for the last three years http://www.stannesrc.org/donations/ . For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself. For if we live, we live unto the Lord. and if we die, we die unto the Lord. Whether we live, therefore, or die, we are the Lord's Romans 14:7
