March 22, 2009
Helen R. Chitel, age 85, of Cicero, left this world quietly and peacefully on Sunday. Helen was formerly a lifelong resident of Syracuse and was a communicant of Assumption Church. She retired from Onon. Co. after many years of employment as a home health aide. She was treasured by her patients, as well as their families, for the compassion and care she provided. Helen was predeceased by numerous family members including her husband, Robert L. Chitel in 1996, her daughter, Anne Farland in 2006 and her beloved grandson, John Berry IV in 1976.
She is survived by her daughters, Michele (Joe) Corbin of Cicero, with whom she resided, and Joan (Mark) Pelletier of Fayetteville, two beautiful granddaughters, Sarah and Noelle Pelletier, her son-in-law, Robert Farland of Orange Park, FL; two sisters-in-law, Marion Fields of Syracuse and Ruby Chitel of Buena Vista, VA; numerous nieces and nephews and her closest and dearest friend, Jo Rubino of Syracuse.
Services will be Wednesday, 11AM at Assumption Church. Burial will follow in Woodlawn Cemetery. A Calling Hour will be Wednesday from 10-11AM at the church, before services.
No value could ever be assigned to her love which was a priceless gift she shared selflessly, generously and without condition all of her life. She will be remembered, treasured and loved forever by many people whose lives she touched. Helen's family would like to express their gratitude to everyone at Hospice of CNY and to the entire amazing group of staff and volunteers at Francis House for the support and care they provided at the end of her life. You were all angels in her life and ours. Special thanks go out as well to Fr. Gary and Br. Joe of Assumption Church for their monthly visits over the last few years which were an enormous comfort to her. God bless each and every one of you.
Contributions in lieu of flowers may be made to Francis House, 108 Michaels Ave., Syracuse, NY 13208.
