Helen Veronica Joachimowski

February 18, 1932 - January 23, 2022

Helen Joachimowski, age 89 of Frankford DE, passed quietly into God’s loving arms on Sunday, January 23rd, 2022. She was born on February 18th, 1932, in Wilmington, DE, daughter of the late John and Mariana (Stodulska) Habrat. Helen was known to many as “Bobbi Jo” but was more lovingly referred to as “Babchi”. Babchi will be remembered by her loving family. She enjoyed word search puzzles, watching game shows, reading, and playing cards with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The grandchildren will remember fondly the times Babchi would pack them in her van and take a day trip to Tower Road Bay during the summer seasons. Her love and passion for dogs would be the next thing her entire family will remember. Babchi loved to travel and would always tell the family about her wonderful adventures to Ireland, Alaska, and anywhere else you can think of. Her favorite place to travel was Poland. In all her travels, many souvenirs like cards, maps, soaps, keychains, and photos were collected and now left behind for all the family to adore and treasure. In addition to her parents, Babchi was preceded in death by her husband, Jesse Joachimowski, Jr., and her son, Kenneth Joachimowski. Babchi is survived by her 4 children: Patricia Nelson, Joseph Joachimowski, JoAnn Joachimowski, and John Joachimowski; her 11 grandchildren; and her 8 great-grandchildren. Services will be private. She will be laid to rest next to her husband and son in All Saints Cemetery in Newark, DE. In lieu of flowers, the family encourages all to send a donation to our local dog rescue “Grass Roots Rescue”, www.grrde.org in Bobbi Jo’s name. She loved the idea that everyone who knew her would look back on all the memories shared and think of the happy times. Please sign the virtual guestbook located on the tribute page.
