Gregory Helms

I was shocked to learn of Greg's passing. I worked with Greg at the Commissioner of Banks. His positive attitude and friendly smile motivated and lifted the spirits of all of us who worked with him. I remember most conversations with Greg got around to family sooner or later, and in my mind, there was no more loving, caring, and proud husband and father than Greg. I had not seen Greg since I left the Commissioner of Banks in 1995 until I was in the Chicago FRB about a year ago. I could not...

We will greatly miss the knowledge and experience Greg brought to our work at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. But we will miss even more his good humor, ever-present smile and most of all his good humor. Please accept my sympathy for your loss, and know we appreciate all the sacrifices that your family made so that Greg could contribute to making our financial system stronger. He will be missed.

It was a shock to me today to find out that Greg passed away. I'am so sad. I will never forget the things that you did for me , to help me when I needed it the most in my lifetime and I will always remeber Greg driving to the new office and also playing with the dog in the back yard. Your boys are the greatest kids I've met. How I remeber you picking me up for work. Bringing me soup and apple. There are not enough words to for gratutde. I will always remeber and love you all.

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

My sincere condolances to you and your family at this sorrowful time. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

We will always embrace wonderful memories, good times and learning experiences with Greg. We had great trips and wonderful times on steam excursions that wandered through the mountains of Colorado and New Mexico. There were always many laughs and great fellowship. Greg will be sorely missed. Our prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.

To the Helms Family,

My deepest sympathy.

Greg had a passion for his family and the great outdoors. He was always willing to lend a helping hand. Greg will be greatly missed.

To the Helms Family.

You have my deepest sympathy on your loss.

I have enjoyed knowing and working with Greg and I will miss him. He was always a source of information and knowledge that I could rely on if I had any questions.

I am so shocked to hear about Greg. I recall with great fondness our trips to Colorado to ride the rails and explore the old railroad lines. Everytime I look at the magazine that has pictures of trains that I painted I remember how proud Greg was of the magazine that printed pictures of locomotives that he painted. I will always have him in my thoughts and heart. I have only wonderful memories of my good friend. May the Lord be with you and your family now and forever.
