Obituary

Helen Arthur Snow, age 70, died in Plano, Texas, Friday, July 26th, 2019. Born August 19, 1948 in Altavista, Virginia, to James Russell Arthur and Doris Helen Bondurant, Helen lived in various cities before moving her family to Plano, Texas in 1980. She worked for 30 years in the communications industry, most recently as Stock Plan Administrator/CEP with DSC Communications/Alcatel-Lucent (now Nokia) until retiring in 2018. Survivors include her husband of 24 years, David S. Snow of Plano, Texas, daughter Julia Roadman and her husband Charlie Roadman, granddaughters Anna and Tess of Austin, Texas, daughter Helen Huckaba and her husband Cy Huckaba, granddaughters Lillie and Penny of Austin, Texas, sisters Katherine Hopkins, Beatrice Arthur, Iva Ciccarello, Donna Lynch, Geraldine Dillard and brothers Eric Arthur, Wallace Arthur, Terry Arthur and their spouses. She is also survived by many nieces, nephews, grandnieces, grandnephews, cousins and lifelong friends. Helen is preceded in death by her parents, James and Doris Arthur, her sister Marlene Cole and brothers James Arthur, Jr., Jack Arthur and Jason Arthur. An extremely loving wife, mother and grandmother, an incredibly kind and loyal friend, Helen was loved by so many and will be missed – especially by her tennis teams, who counted on her for a line win most matches. A longtime member of T Bar M racquet club, retirement offered her an opportunity to play tennis, her favorite sport, as often as she could. Along with tennis, Helen was a runner, most recently wining her age division at the Frisco Turkey Trot, avid reader, crossword connoisseur, and the best Mimi to her granddaughters. With the passing of Helen, her family and friends will miss her laugh, her hugs and her abundant love.   *Services will be held on Saturday, August 3rd, 2019 at 3:00 pm at Zion Lutheran Church, 6121 E. Lovers Lane, Dallas, Texas 75214.   Please leave the family condolences and share memories on this website.

    Helen was a gracious intelligent and admired friend and coworker. She was so proud of her family, especially her beautiful grandchildren. My heart goes out to you. She had so much more to give to you. A life cut tragically short. God bless you all.

    Sending big hugs and prayers for strength at this difficult time. I worked for Helen back in the early 2000’s. She was the best boss I ever had. She was always smiling, always friendly and such an amazing friend and mentor. I was so lucky to have that time with her. She will be missed. Sending love.

"If I could give 6 stars I would. Aria made a difficult easier to deal with by basically taking care of everything in an efficient but very empathetic manner. I can speak highly enough of Dusty Martin, who helped us with all of the planning and logistics. He was incredibly understanding and helpful."

"Nothing prepares you for the grief you go through when losing a child. I called this funeral home at 2:00 am broken and could barely talk. The amount of compassion and empathy they showed me immediately let me know I found the right place to cremate my son. I cannot thank them enough for their professionalism, SINCERE concern, and commitment to making sure my son was honored in the most respectful way. I hope this Funeral home values her as much as my family and I do."

"I can’t say enough about how helpful and professional Dusty Martin, the funeral director at the Aria Cremation location on NW Highway has been. From my initial call, he was kind and informative. My friend died at home while on hospice and she was picked up in about an hour after receiving the call from the hospice nurse. The person who arrived to pick her up was also very professional/respectful and allowed us to take as much time with her as we wished. When I met with Dusty the next day about arrangements, he explained the process and options available without being pushy or trying to “sell” extras. Throughout the process, he kept me informed and, for example, was careful to be certain I understood the cost of the obituary I wanted and offered some options for reducing that cost if I wished. When I stopped by for another reason and started talking about some of the problems I was having with the pictures and media I hoped to use at a memorial lunch I was planning, he not only listened patiently but offered technology advice and let me use his personal media player. I have had experience arranging cremations for four others using two other local companies, and this experience with Dusty at Aria has been by far the best one I have had."

"My Daddy’s service and our family experience at Aria Northwest Highway was truly blessed. Funeral Director Dustin Martin is the kind of person that you would like to see on a more regular basis – but in his industry – you hope to not see him that often. That being said – THANK YOU DUSTIN for your unending kindness, compassion and friendship through the process. Meeting you and discussing Dallas History, Find A Grave and my Dad’s lifelong contributions to the great City of Dallas was simply wonderful! In memory of my dad James A. Dodd, Sr. – I want to personally thank you and let you know that you made everything better in that moment. Your calling to “Be There” is spot on. Aria has a one in a million guy in you! Bling Blinky of TEXAS Shout Out: God Bless You!!"
