Helen Doris Pezeshki, age 82, of Lakeville, IN, passed away on Monday, September 3, 2018 at her daughter's home. Helen was born on September 24, 1935 in Kansas City, MO, to Luther and Marta (Nordberg) Campbell. On October 22, 1960, in Galveston, TX, she married Manoochehr “Doc” Pezeshki. They settled in Portsmouth, Ohio where she raised surviving daughter, Charlotte (Robert) Wolfe of Lakeville; her sons, Charles (Alicia) Pezeshki of Pullman, WA, and Philip (Krista) Pezeshki of Burlington, VT; and her nephew, Mehrdad (Lori) Ghofraniha of Sugarland, TX.

Helen was predeceased by her father, Luther Campbell; her mother, Marta Feeney; her husband, Manoochehr Pezeshki; her brother, Russell Fogle; and, her sisters, Eleanor Abter and Edith Arlund. Helen was a registered nurse before marrying and becoming a full time homemaker after her children were born. She was a loving, dedicated, and patient mother to her 3 children and later her nephew during his high school years. She modelled and encouraged lifelong learning, exposing all of her children and grandchildren to nature study, especially birds; singing and music; literature; horseback riding; gardening; and scouts. She was a tireless chauffeur to school and lessons, loved all things horses, played the banjo, painted, and was an avid reader. She will be greatly missed by all.
