I first laid eyes on Helene at a dance class at Echo Park. With her was a young, attractive girl with two left feet who became one of the most impressive dancers ever to grace a line dance floor. Helene beamed with pride as she watched her daughter dance. She was a tough critic,but it was done with love. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Michele...With Love, Syl and Coach

I first met Helene at the North Merrick Senior Center, where I was a line dance instructor. Although she never danced, she was always cheerful and well dressed, and always wore a hat to match her outfit. We nicknamed her the Hat Lady. At that time, I didn't know she was Michele's mother but learned that later on after Michele and I became friends ourselves thru line dancing. One of God's greatest gifts to us all is the bond between a parent and a child. May God's love give you strength as you grieve the loss of your Mom and friend. Love, Barb & Dave
