Oh Helen, the fun us kids had on Willow street, playing with Lynn ,Betty and Kevin and you would give us packets of coolade so we all dipped our fingers in the package, and thought that was heaven, and the Peaches from their tree was so delicious to eat, I think she did this to keep us out of the house LOL, she was a sweet kind person, but then when we were playing at our house or Roger Harts house and Lynn would make Betty mad ...she would go up the alley, and Lynn would say "well Mom's going to be calling me home now" and sure enough, Helen would come out that back door and yell up the alley for Lynn to get home, he would stomp his feet and say he would see us later cause he's in trouble now....those times back then were precious, and I'm sure Helen will be missed by all. Thoughts and prayers to the family .
