Helen Kleberg Groves passed away peacefully at home in San Antonio, Texas on Friday, May 6, 2022. She was born 94 years prior in the same city on October 20, 1927, the only child of Robert Justus Kleberg, Jr. and Helen Campbell Kleberg.

Raised on the King Ranch, “Helenita” went on to graduate from Foxcroft School in Middleburg, Virginia and attended Vassar College. From there she began her long, fascinating, and varied life. She had many passions in life, but ranching, fine horses, and family were central. Her abiding love of the Ranch, its land, livestock, and the people who worked there, formed the foundation for all she did. She was a crack shot with her Colt pistol, often bettering the men around her and continued to be a keen and accurate dove and quail hunter into her nineties.
