Helen was born on October 20, 1929, in Coudersport, the daughter of the late Gust and Bessie (Georgas) Psychos. She married Galen A.

Helen was the valedictorian of Coudersport High School, Class of 1947. Her professional career started at an early age working alongside her parents at the family owned confectionery, the Olympic.

In her earlier years, Helen enjoyed square dancing and sewing. She loved cooking and was well known for her Greek pastries during the holidays. She was very proud of her Greek heritage.

Remembering Helen Snowman and her front porch which was open to all for visiting. I have many fond memories as a child of spending time at the their farm, esp boating in the pond with her daughter, my good friend, Kara. Would walk from the Snowman's house to the Coudy theater almost every Sunday night to see the latest movie. Her house was a gathering place in town during my teenage years just talking, making Chef Boyardee pizzas, drinking hot tea, and playing scrabble. And also the wonderful Greek Baklava, so delicious. She will be greatly missed.
