I'm so sorry for your loss! She was a dear friend of the Bell family! My Mother spoke highly of y'all. I will always remember them sharing Shaklee. And of course when our dog Peppy ran away across town to your home in Ottawa. If my Mother were able to she would send her condolences and much love. God Bless Cindy (Bell) Hultgren

My deepest sympathy to Rebecca and Sallie, and their dear father, Bill, on
their loss. Helen was a wonderful neighbor.to ,all the O'Conors .We have missed them. I have enjoyed her Christmas letters that kept me up on all the family through the past years. My age keeps me from being as active as I"d like, but I still live in the same place and manage. My prayers and thoughts are with you today. With Love, Carol O'ConorH

My husband & I used go to their house to visit & buy Shaklee product from her. She was a great lady.

I was so sorry to hear of Helen's passing!! I loved this lady! years ago I attended the same church as Helen & Bill. She told me she wanted to adopt me (they had no children at that time). I will always cherish the memories of my childhood many nights/sleep overs spent at their house in Ottawa on the north side! Deepest sympathy to Bill & Family! Thanks for the great childhood memories!!!
