Deepest sympathy to the whole Peot family. You were always my other brothers & sisters when we were young! I'll always remember Helen and how busy she always was. She was either cooking, cleaning or taking care of the newest baby. She was a wonderful lady and you are all very lucky to have had her for 92 years!! She will truly be missed by us all but I'm happy that she will once again be reunited with your Dad and siblings Jerry and Lisa and all her brothers and sisters. I'll never forget her....Love to all and sorry I can't be there for you now but you are in my thoughts and prayers through this difficult time....
