Helen Holthouser Passes Away

Helen Holthouser passed away on Wednesday, February 1, 2012. Helen was a teacher aide in the Special Education department at Wilson, primarily working with current teacher, Ed Dial and his son, Lincoln. She was married to Jack Holthouser. Their children attended Wilson High School and two were a part of the RWMA; Kenny was a percussionist in the Band, and Diane was a member of the Drill Team. Along with her husband, Helen and Jack were very active boosters and very close friends with former band director, Gil Adams. Together, they traveled on several Band trips including trips to Australia, England, Scotland, Spain, Hawaii, and Washington D.C. for President Reagan? second inauguration. Their son, Kenny, was involved in an accident when he was a student that resulted in a metal plate being placed in his head. He later was working out in the sun and experienced sunstroke, resulting in a coma from which he never recovered from. The Kenneth Holthouser Memorial Scholarship was established by the Holthousers and is given to a hardworking graduating senior in the RWMA, not necessarily the most talented or one with high academic marks. In March 2010, Jack passed away. Ever since, Helen had been struggling with health issues. In her last couple of days, Helen had been in a coma. She passed away peacefully with her daughter Diane and son Marty at her bedside.
