Helen J. Constable

Helen Joan Dille Constable, 93, passed away peacefully at her home in Eatonton, Georgia, on May 30, 2025. Born on March 11, 1932, in Polk, Pennsylvania, Helen lived a long and full life marked by love, loyalty, and quiet strength.

She was the daughter of the late Floyd and Vera Dille and was preceded in death by her sister, Donna Daley.

A graduate of Franklin High School, Helen began her career in bookkeeping at Polk Institute.

In 1951, Helen married the late Richard Constable, and for 30+ years they shared commitment and family. Together, they raised four children and were blessed with nine grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. They started the Constable family business, where she was also the bookkeeper. The next chapter in her life was spent with the late James Schildkamp. He founded a business, and she found herself as the bookkeeper of another small business. Helen worked well into her 80’s where she retired from Anderson Furniture Company.

Helen was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. She had a deep love of reading, knitting, cooking, and traveling-and was an enthusiastic Pittsburgh Steelers fan.  Her warmth, quiet wit, and generous heart touched everyone who knew her.

Guests will be received at the Franklin First United Methodist Church, 1102 Liberty Street, Franklin, PA on Monday June 30th from 10am to 11am with a service to celebrate Helen’s life will be held immediately following at 11am.  Helen will rest in Oakhill Cemetery, Sandy Lake.

The family offers sincere gratitude to Peaceful Purpose Hospice of Eatonton, Georgia, for their exceptional care and support.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Franklin First United Methodist Church.

Arrangements are under the care of the Gardinier-Warren Funeral Home and Cremation Services, Inc., 1315 Chestnut Street, Franklin, PA. 16323.
