Our sympathies to my cousin Donna and her family. I know we have not seen each other in many years, but I still have memories of Aunt Helen, Uncle Don, the house on Kreag Road, of "Sarge of the Barge", Freddie the cat, and both Donna and Carol many years ago. I do still think of you often.

We are happy that we did visit with Helen for several days within the last few years. We were amazed at her optimistic attitude in the throes of discomfort. We were in contact often by telephone, and will miss her and the family connection.

I express my deep sympathy to Helen's family & brother Ken. I finally got to visit her in 2005 after years of trying to locate her. She was the person responsible for me meeting my husband. Our Concrest family was never far from our thoughts. Dorothy (Stuart) Whitmire
