Juliette Helmick Obituary

Juliette B. Helmick, loved by a host of family & friends. It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Juliette Burrell Helmick on February 6th, 2023. Juliette was born on May 25, 1944, to Julius and Myrtle Burrell in Chesapeake, West Virginia.

Juliette was a dedicated educator and made a lasting impact on the lives of her students and families. She graduated from Charleston High School in West Virginia at 16 years old, and obtained her Bachelors degree from West Virginia State University at 20 years old. While working full time as a teacher she obtained her Master’s degree in Education Administration from Cleveland State University.

Throughout her career, she taught at John Hay High School, John F Kennedy High School and served as an Assistant Principal at Patrick Henry Junior High, Collinwood High, Cleveland School of the Arts, Cleveland Heights and as the first female Principal at Monticello Junior High in Cleveland Heights, Ohio.

Juliette was a loving mother to her dedicated only child, Jeffrey Helmick, and adored her granddaughters, Lauren and Victoria. She is also survived by her sister, Mattie B. James, brother, Michael X Burrell, nephews Kevin, Keith, and Kelly, and special friends Linda Young, Viney Chandler, Gloria Lovelace, Mary Lidgey, and Diane Lewis. In addition, Juliette is survived by many nieces and cousins.

Juliette lived a full and fulfilling life, enriched by her wit and charm, which impacted the lives of everyone she encountered. She loved to travel and visited every continent except Antarctica. In her very active retirement she continued to work with schools and children in a consulting role and she would tell everyone she encountered that she scored two holes in one in her favorite activity golf.

She will be remembered as a kind, generous, and compassionate person who touched the lives of many and will be deeply missed. The memories of her love, laughter, and dedication will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her. Celebration of Life service to follow. Arrangements entrusted to LUCAS MEMORIAL CHAPEL 9010 Garfield Blvd. in Garfield Hts. Ohio.
