Helen Linderman, daughter of Jacob and Helen (Deibert)
Linderman was born July 22, 1926, 11 miles
southwest of Herreid in Campbell County. She
attended Green Valley Country School and later
Herreid Public Schools, graduating with the class
of 1944. She then attended Northern Normal and

teacher's certificate. She taught school in
Campbell County for five years.
She was united in marriage to Ervin Holzwarth on

Helen was very creative and loved crafts and
sewing. She enjoyed music, reading and was a great
cook. Helen will be remembered as being a great
