In 1977, Helen gave me my first job after I graduated from college at AAA. She recognized potential in me and always encouraged me to do better and move on, even if it meant an inconvenience to her. I often speak about her as my best mentor and very fine person.
My sympathies.

To the family of Helen V. St. John
I worked with Helen at AAA for 8 yrs and she a joy to work with. She didn't pull any punches and you always knew exactly what was on her mind. I admired her style and finesse. She was truly gifted when it came to the field of travel. She will be dearly missed.

When you think of our life on earth, and all those loving years because you are only human, they are bound to bring tears. But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain. Remember there would be no flowers, unless these was some rain. May your memories bring you comfort. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
