To Teri and all family members of Mrs. Helen. I was one of the nurses at Gahanna Family Practice that had the pleasure of knowing and assisting with the care of Mrs. Helen. I loved her so much she let me call her my second mother. What I will miss most of all about her is know matter how she was feeling she never ever complained she always had a beautiful smile and wonderful spirit she will be greatly missed. But for now she is sleeping and we will see that beautiful smile again soon. Thoughts and Prayer with you and your family. Shelly
