Not sure what to say?

Honoring Mother Helms. I have nothing but fond memories that warm my heart. Mother Helms loved and missed by all that knew her even if you just had one encounter with her.

Mom I love you and miss you so much. Your love your love you showed to strangers and everyone you knew. I can still hear your infectious laugh. And how your face would light up when someone told a funny joke. I remeber how you loved singing and listening to gospel music. You were our light and our world has been darker since you have been gone. I love you mom and look forward to seeing you again. Your loving daughter.... Robin
