Helen was a very 'special' resident at Mountain View Nursing Home to me as she would jokingly say 'I'm the other Helen' as my mother's name is, also, Helen! I always noticed the pretty necklaces that Helen was wearing and she looked so happy all of the time. I truly admire the staff at Mountain View Nursing Home as they all make reisdents, family and friends feel blessed. I will especially miss Helen as she would say to me 'I talked to your Mother today and she smiled at me'. What a lovely person she was and we will miss her very much during our visits at Mountain View. Rest in peace, Helen.
Your Friends, Sue & Larry Vann
