Jeanne M. Compagnone, My thoughts are with you; I remember your Mother as a very attractive, kind, and soft spoken Lady. Helen looked beautiful at Jill's wedding. May She rest in Peace; and, Her Spirit be with you and your Siblings. In Her honor, a donation to the Globe Santa is forth-coming. Most affectionately, Lisa Compagnone
