"Aunt Helen" was a wonderful role model -- a woman of grace who always saw something to smile about and always had a story to make you laugh. While I knew her only in her later years during her visits with her niece, Diane, she always approached life with style, grace, and a love of life. Her "Red Hat" days especially showed her graciousness and fun side. This world has lost a shining light--she will be missed!

Although I had not seen Mrs Gregory for many years I always had fond memories of her. What a wonderfull lady. Geo Snavely and I are close friends and I would always ask him about her. She is very special to him. My thoughts and prayers to Geo, Mrs Gregory's daughters,sons and all the family.
There is a sadness I know, but how proud you must be!

To the Gregory family,
What a joy it was to sit and visit with Mrs. Gregory! She had a way of telling stories that always made me smile.
One of my memories goes back many years.I drove to Naylor's to pick up my daughter,Wendy, and ended up eating supper with Mr. and Mrs. Gregory. They just made me feel very welcomed,and I will always remember their warm hospitality.This one day made a special memory that I have never forgotten. May God bless you all, and hold you close.
You are in my prayers.

"Aunt Helen" was a woman of Grace and Beauty!! She was a true Bialkowski and Beck as she would often say! My favorite memory will always be the joy she had at Colonial Beach, especially riding on the Golf Cart around town!
She loved her family and talked of them often. Her life was an enrichment to all whom she met. She loved her Holiday Toys!
Love, Maureen

A wonderful legacy this kind woman left behind! She loved her family without a doubt and was a kind, sweet spirit. She lived a full life, filled with love. What a gift to share! If memories are what carry on to keep the love alive in your hearts, Mrs. Gregory has certianly left a lifetime of them for you and more! My prayers for your family at this time. Be comforted in knowing she is at peace and at home with her LORD and others that went home before her, whom she has missed and loves. GOD BLESS YOU ALL! Share the memories as often as you can!

Helen was monumental in making all of my growing up years happy. As a young child and a teen I spend more time at her house than mine. Her first born, Emilie, was my very best friend. I can honestly say that Helen treated me with the same love and kindness that she did each of her children. I know she will be greatly missed. There is an abundance of joy in Heaven today. If ever there was a person worthy of Heaven it is Helen.

A wonderful woman who leaves behind a great legacy! I am honored to hve known her and to have enjoyed "the most beautiful sunset in the world" with her! She will be thought of everytime I see the sunlight on the water and know that she is still enjoying it with me only from a different view. Lots of love to you all! Liz

It was a pleasure meeting such a wonderful person as Mrs. Gregory, in the short time I knew her she had a child-like quality about her and was the epitamy of a "proud mom" I enjoyed the time we spent together and the stories about her family, she could grab your heart by just meeting her and I am so fortunate to have known her she will be missed and above all thought of fondly and to the family I am praying for all of you.

Helen was one of my mother's ( Genie Eckert Jeter) most-loved cousins and best friends. I'll always remember her cheerfulness and positive attitude along with her capacity to have a good time. As my Mom said, "Helen was always just so much fun to be around." She will be so misssed, and I, my Mom, and my Dad share in your sorrow. Phyllis Jeter Herman
