I was so sorry to hear of Auntie Helen's passing. You have our most sincere condolences. When I was last up in the area this past summer, I was lucky enough to have had a very nice visit with her. I will certainly always remember her energy, her love and her story telling and her wonderful laugh! I wanted so badly to be there for the funeral, but was unable to get up there in time. My regards to all; my thoughts will be with you.
May she rest in peace, but her memory live on.
