Helen was always the fun loving Aunt who was involved in the lives of all of us. She loved going out to dinner and the movies. We shall miss her warm smile and charming personality, and know that there will be one wonderful reuinion with Jane, Tim, Dad and Gammie and Poppa.

Helen was my aunt and a wonderful aunt at that. She had a great sense of humor and made me laugh every time we were all together. I am so sorry I can not be with the Hackman family to say good bye to my favorite aunt. My father was Howard Hackman, Helen's younger brother. We shall all miss her very much.

Helen was a delightful lady. First met her when we took our 4 children to Dr. Hackman. For the many years after she had retired she always asked about each one. I enjoyed running into her whether the hair dressers or market and giving her a hug.
