HELEN BISSET GREEN (nee MITCHELL) The family is mourning the loss of Helen Bisset Green, the daughter of Neil and Helen Mitchell who was predeceased by her loving husband Gordon Albert Green. Helen died peacefully at Shepherd Village on January 20, 2015 at 93 years of age.

Helen touched many lives while she was with us. When she was young she got her first job and moved to Toronto Island with a few girlfriends where she had a wonderful time. She was a nurse during the second world war and met her husband Gordon Green at a dance that was held for the returning soldiers. She was an integral part of many school committees and senior citizen groups and was always there for everyone to depend on. She loved line dancing and playing cards with her friends. During her last years, she lived at Shepherd Village and enjoyed socializing with other residents as well as the Bible Study gatherings. Most of all Helen loved being at family gatherings where she could count her blessings by being with her grand and great-grandchildren whom she loved dearly. She will be missed by many. There will be a visitation at 10 a.m. and the service will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday, February 7, 2015 in the chapel at Shepherd Village.
