Helen Louise (Wilfong) Kopp, age 91, of Hot Springs, Arkansas, passed away peacefully on Friday, January 9, 2026. Helen Kopp was born in Farmington, Missouri, the only daughter among four sons to Ida (Baker) Wilfong and “Roy” Wilfong. In 1966, the Kopp family moved to Jefferson City, Missouri, where Jack and Helen were then employed in the Jefferson City Public Schools. This credential allowed her to become the first district-wide speech therapist in Jefferson City schools. The petite but dedicated Helen drove the van from school to school, daily, across the hills and valleys of Jefferson City.
