My sincere condolences go out to the family. She was a member of the family through marriage and even though my brother and I only saw her a couple of times in our lives, she never treated us any differently than she did the rest of the grandchildren and I send the family all of my love.

Aunt Helen was very special and was such fun. I remember sitting in her kitchen listening to her and mom tell stories about all the kinfolk. They laughed so hard that they cried. I know she is reunited with Roy in heaven.

Helen, was a wonderful woman. When I was a little girl she used to tease me, because we were family and had the same name.
She will be missed by so many people as she touched so many people.
