Helen Josie Block was born on Wednesday, July 29, 1925 to Joseph M. and Mary (Lewno) Block on the family farm east of Grenville, South Dakota. She was baptized and confirmed at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Grenville. She attended parochial school in Grenville and finished through the eighth grade at a country school near her home. In 1943 she moved to live with her sister, Amelia in Webster and worked at Wist Produce Company. 1946 to 1948 she lived with her sister, Sylvia in Minneapolis and worked at a cookie factory and then returned to the Grenville area. On May 25, 1949 she was united in marriage to Norbert Stromseth at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Grenville.
