Born on July 14, 1930, in Colome, South Dakota, to the late Edward and Rose (Schamber) Steinke, she was the sixth child born out of nine siblings. She married Robert (Bob) Goff on February 25, 1953, in Tijuana, Mexico. They were married for 36 years before his passing in 1989. She was a devoted mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, and will be lovingly remembered for her devotion to her family, her red chili, love of crossword puzzles, Bud Light, soap operas, and her warm heart.

Helma loved bowling, working in her yard, and belonged to the Fraternal Order of Eagles and the Veterans of Foreign War. She was a devoted Lutheran, who belonged to Our Saviour Lutheran Church for over 60 years. In her younger years, she and Bob traveled and lived throughout the U.S., opening and running several businesses along the way, before finally settling down in Commerce City in 1966. Her kindness, compassion, and laughter will never be forgotten.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Bob, parents, six sisters and one brother. She is survived by her daughter, Debbie (Randy) Evans, and son David (Kim) Goff; grandchildren Brandon Kerls, Courtney (Kyle) Chapin, Caitlin (Shawn) Zellner, Taylor Evans, Caidance Goff, Trinity Goff, Curt (Maggi) Evans, Craig Evans, Debbi (Tom) Saller, Robert Goff, Jim Goff, Kimberly (Landon) Boone, Craig Goff; and great-grandchildren Tyler Kerls, Trindon Kerls, Carlee Chapin, Kaycee Chapin, Cameron Chapin, Rosalynn Zellner, Gracelynn Zellner, Khalen Zellner, Gunner Evans, Zaila Evans, Eli Johnson, brother, Harry (Doris) Steinke, along with numerous nieces and nephews.

We will carry her memory in our hearts forever.
