My condolences to Helen's family as she will be greatly missed. As a member of Jacksonville First Coast Lions Club, she was a kind, loving and beautiful asset to the club. All of the members (old and new) will miss her smiling face. Ms. Helen as I called her will always have a special place in my heart along side Francis. I'll always love them both!!
