To the MacVarish Family, especially my wife Jayne.
I have come to love this entire family and think of them as an extension of mine. Helen and John have always been two of the most giving people I have ever met. All of the children thru the years have treated my family with such incredible respect and love and they have all been there for me during my days of sorrow. I am so gratefull for having this family in my life and will think of Helen fondly for the rest of my days on earth. I am comforted knowing Helen was greated by my past family members and I know they are in Gods graces.
All my love during your time of healing.
Brent

To John and the Whole MacVarish Clan & extended Family:
You are all in our thoughts and prayers at this most difficult time.I would get periodic reports from John Sr. & Tom on how Helen was doing and her never ending spirit and fight with her health. I think that serves as a great inspiration to everyone who knew her. She was always so kind and eloquent and all the Gunnings will miss her smile and spirit! So to John, all the kids and grandkids, keep Helen's spirit close to your hearts, and she will always live on.
Deepest Sympathies,
Jim & Trudy Gunning
