May my dear aunt Helen rest in the eternal arms of God our father. I loved her so much, and am deeply saddened to know that she is no longer with us. Going back home to visit will not be the same anymore knowing that she is no longer there. Helen has always been very close to our family. I know she is happy now alongside our many other lost loved ones, especially Tony her beloved husband. Auntie Helen is and forever will be my favorite aunt. I love you auntie Helen. May you forever rest in peace and may God Bless you and all of my cousins and their families. You will be greatly missed! <3 :'(
