She was born November 21, 1927, in New Suffolk, NY to Edward and Mary (Kreskowski) Victoria. Growing up in New Suffolk, Helen loved the Great Peconic Bay. She spent her youth clamming, fishing, scalloping and frolicking on the beach with her brothers, sisters and neighborhood friends.
After her marriage to Byron Horton, she worked the family farm until retirement. More than anything, Helen loved her family. She always had a smile on her face and could crack a joke at a moment's notice.
Helen was predeceased by her siblings, Stanley, John, Paul, Peter, Chester, Mary Sophie and Stella. She is survived by her beloved daughters, Mary (Doug Sr.) Bogovich, and Janet Stewart; her grandchildren, Doug (Dawn) Bogovich, John (Jessica) Stewart, Kathleen (Michael) DiSilvio and Ryan Bogovich; her great-grandchildren, Amber and Alex Bogovich and Raylan and Isla DiSilvio; and numerous nieces and nephews.
Services held at DeFriest-Grattan Funeral Home, Mattituck, NY. The Liturgy of Christian burial will be celebrated at Our Lady of Ostrabrama R.C. Church, Father Stan Wadowski officiating. Interment will follow at Sacred Heart R.C. Cemetery, Cutchogue, NY.
Memorial donations to the Mattituck Fire Department Rescue Squad or the American Heart Association would be appreciated.
