Helen was employed as a cashier at the former Warner Theatre, and later as a secretary handling foreign currency exchanges for the former TRW, both in Philadelphia. She was a long time resident of Rosemont Presbyterian Village and had many friends there. She was known for her "Irish" good humor and friendliness as well as her beautiful smile.

Helen often spoke of how blessed she was for the wonderful care she received from the staff at Rosemont Presbyterian Village, Broomall Presbyterian Nursing Facility, and Bryn Mawr Hospital. "Thank you" to all who helped her, especially during this past year. Helen was a member of St. Thomas of Villanova Church.

I will miss our breakfasts at Minetti's Diner in Wayne. I was so blessed to know Helen and to be her friend. She will be missed but I know she is happy to be with her mother and brother once again.
