My Beautiful Aunt Helen. I will miss you so very much. You had to be a earthbound angel. You only had good things to share, never did you say anything bad. You were always the sweetest most gentliest woman I have ever know. I will miss sending you your christmas card every year telling you how beautiful you are. Gone but never will you be forgotten. Your now at peace with your husband, brothers, sisters and mom and dad. may you rest in peace for ever more, until we meet again. I Love You.

We just wanted to express our heart felt sympathy in hearing of the passing of such a wonderful & gentle lady. She was Ollie Potts roommate while in Van Rensselaer Manor. They were like Lucy & Ethel while together. Helen was such a caring person and her friendship made Ollie's time in the home so special. With our love & Prayers The Potts & Austin Families
