Helen was such a kind person. When Matt and Julie got married, Helen invited me to stay over night at her home rather than make the hour drive home alone late at night after a lovely but long day of celebration. I will never forget how gracious she was to me. It was wonderful to have known Helen just the little that I did. How she loved her wonderful family of Ruth and Bobby, Matt and Julie, and, of course, Rebecca and Patrick!
