It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Helga Elsa Wehrle Troup, who left us peacefully, surrounded by her family, on Wednesday, January 31, 2024, at the age of 86, at Pleasant Ridge Manor in Erie, Pennsylvania. Daughter of Joseph and Elsa Lehrle Wehrle, she was born in Heilbronn, Germany, on October 17, 1937. Helga's journey led her to the United States, where she made a loving home and a lasting impact on her friends and family. Helga was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 45 years, Ronald James Troup; and her brothers, Walter and Kurt Wehrle. Her memory will be cherished and kept alive by her loving daughter, Janet Wittman; son, Robert Troup and his wife, Susan; her sister, Erika Zurheide; her adored grandchildren, Jessica (Ryan), Jacob, Thomas, Sarah, and Katherine; great-grandchildren, Austin, Jordy, and Reese; alongside a community of friends and neighbors. Her love for her family, especially the babies and her dogs over the years brought her joy. She enjoyed traveling to Germany and loved listening to Elvis. Helga's legacy will live on through the memories she created and the love she shared with her family. She will be deeply missed but never forgotten. Services will be private and at the convenience of the family. Arrangements are being handled by the Dusckas Funeral Home and Cremation Services, Inc., 2607 Buffalo Rd.
