HELEN JOYCE NEWBERG
November 8, 1930 February 16, 2020
Helen Joyce Newberg, 89, died February 16, 2020 in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
She was born November 8, 1930 in Maryville, Missouri.
She was a devoted and cherished wife, mom, grandma, great-grandma, and friend. She was a homemaker, but also loved the 25 plus years she worked as a part-time retailer for Hallmark Cards stocking the card shelves in the local grocery store. She was truly a midwestern girl having raised her family in Des Moines, Lincoln, Omaha, Sioux City, and Urbandale. Upon retirement in 2008, she and John moved to Colorado Springs to be nearer to grandkids. She loved shopping, golfing, playing card games and watching any kind of sport on TV.
Helen is preceded in death by her parents; husband, John; son, Johnny; brother, Charles Moore; and daughter-in-law, Pam Newberg.
She is survived by her sister, Sarah (Deane) Lawrence; sister-in-law, Sylvia Moore; sons, Ran (Kathy) Newberg of Sioux City, IA, Brian (Valerie) Newberg of Colorado Springs, CO, Chuck (Stacie) Newberg of Rock Springs, WY; grandchildren, Zach (Ashley) Newberg, Tami (Peter) Wahba, Josiah (Katie) Newberg, Caleb (Alex) Newberg, Parker Newberg and Riley Newberg; and great-grandchildren, Aribelle and Clarette Newberg, Kinsley and Zane Wahba.
Family Services will be held June 2020 in Sioux City, IA.

I'm so glad I met Helen at GriefShare several years ago. We became a group of widow friends that enjoyed lunches out, tea parties and lots of phone visits. She would always call to let me know when Kansas basketball was on TV. She loved her grandchildren and the great grandchildren and would tell us all the cute things they did.❤I will really miss my dear friend

My favorite memory of Helen is she and I going to Village Inn every Wednesday. Helen would always order the Beef Vegetable Soup and for dessert she would order Lemon Pie. We would sit and talk and just enjoy each others company. I loved her and I will miss her.
