On February 20, 2015, God sent one of his angels down to earth to pick
up a worthy saint; Ms. Heline Chambers was born June 25, 1960, in
Winnsboro, S.C. She was the daughter Annie Mae Chambers and the late Nelson
Chambers Sr.
As a young woman, Heline turned her life over to God at an early
age and she served faithfully. She was involved in missionary work and was on
the Pulpit Aide Committee at the Apostolic Doctrine Church of Hopkins where she
was a member for over 20 years.
Heline graduated in
May, 1978 from Winnsboro High School where she was an honor student, a member
of the National Beta Club as well as several other clubs.
Heline was preceded in
death by her father, Nelson Chambers Sr. and three brothers: Robert Davis,
Nelson Chambers Jr. and Robert Chambers.
She learned how to be a responsible young adult by working in the
school district at an early age. Later she was employed by Kyzers of Winnsboro
for many years before working at Timm’s Medi Mart in Ridgeway, S.C. until she
moved to Charleston, S.C. in the early nineties. While living in Charleston , S.C. for over
20 years, Heline decided to continue her education by pursuing an Associates
Degree at Trident
Technical College
while working as a Pharmacy Tech at MUSC of Charleston.
Although, Heline did not have any children she was a god-mother,
a second mother to many, a sister, a loving aunt to a host of nieces and
nephews and a friend to hundreds perhaps thousands of people of all ages,
ethnicities and backgrounds.
She leaves behind to cherish fond memories: her mother, Annie Mae
