Many times I had the pleasure of Helen'es company. When we would get together for Lehan-Feordoroff family events, Helene would always take the time to talk with me. " "Sharon have a seat."
She always had a postive outlook on life and would give me words of couragement. " I know you can do it"
I loved hearing the stories of Joyce and Joe Jr when they were little. Stories only a mother could tell.
I will always be grateful for knowing Helene. Thank you Helene.
Love Sharon
