Helen was born June 9, 1932 and raised in Salt Lake City by her loving parents Wallace Mar and Ada Hinckley Scott.
She met the love of her life, M. Duane Butler, at a church social, and they were married on August 4, 1951. They were later sealed for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake Temple on September 19, 1952.
Helen and Duane started their own business and in the later years Helen became President of W. B. Enterprises - Get Mugged. She advertised live on K-Talk Radio and became affectionately known as "The Mug Lady", which brought her much happiness, as well as working with her family decorating plates and mugs with business logos.
Helen attended the University of Utah and studied speech and arts. She became a very successful watercolorist and received many awards for her paintings.
She served in many positions in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and her last calling was a coordinator /greeter for the Highland Cove 15th Branch. Her favorite callings were serving the youth along side her husband. She loved to play bridge every month with her close friends and she cherished the vacations with family and friends on their houseboat at Lake Powell.
Helen is survived by her loving husband, Duane; two sons and one daughter: Dennis Butler, David (Ann) Butler, Delee (Kelly) Skeen; ten grandchildren: Cody, Catherine, Scott (MacKenzie), Nathan, Brenon, Emily, Matthew, Tahnee (Lorrin), Travis and Tiana. Three great grandchildren: Kyler, Porter, and Odin. Helen is preceded in death by her granddaughter Becky Butler.
