My cousin Vondalee and all your family, my deepest condolences for your loss. Aunt Helen is now home with our Heavenly Father and all the rest of her family that are there already. What a celebration they are going to have being together again and mostly our LORD JESUS CHRIST will be at the table breaking bread with them all celebrating her new birth of life eternal.
God bless her sole. She will be missed very much. I wish I could have gotten to San Jose to see her more often. I only got to visit her when I took my mother, one of her sisters to visit. God bless and be with all your family forever.
I love all of you and hope soon we can get together to visit before time runs out.
God Bless...
