Helen was a wonderful woman who I always admired and treasured as a dear friend. I truly felt a loss in my life when I heard of her passing. My thoughts and prayers go out to each and every member of her family who will truly miss her but be at peace knowing that she is once again with Mark and is happy in heaven. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
