Not sure what to say?

Peggy, My heart is with you and your family as you mourn the passing of your mother and grandmother. I love you all as if you were my own. Ken Tate

Great Grandma and Eli

We were truly saddened to hear of the passing of Helen. We first met her at the wedding of our oldest son, Jerry, and Traci. She was a sweet, gentle, always smiling lady and did not change a bit up to the last time we visited at the Eagle Scout ceremony for Dylan, our shared Grandson. Dylan is staying with us now while going to school at Bellevue College and he also is greatly saddened by the loss of his Grandmother. He and his siblings stayed often at Helen's home and we have heard many...

I think I have almost allways referrd to my mother in-law as grandma just as most people did. She was kind to me from the first time I met her till the last time I talked to her. I will miss the fiestiness that she had. Missed will be good natured teasing which sometimes you'd have to repeat 2 or 3 times because she did'nt hear you the first time. Grandma,I love you and I will miss you.

To the Thomas Girls,
Your Mom has taken the next step of her journey and is now reunited with your Dad and Steven. I know she leaves this world very proud of the girls she left behind. She has always been a very strong woman and I hope you find some of her strength to help you through this sorrowful time. Peggy, I agree with you. Helen was always the family rock. I think your sister Tami has all the makings of being just like her. As young girls we always called her Mom!

So sorry for the loss of your mother. I only met her a few times but she was a very sweet lady and you could tell she loved to be around her family.

I have so many good things to say about Helen.Lots of memories.. She was like my second Mom through High School. She was a very kind and loving person. I will always remember when I would walk through the door and she would be sitting in her kitchen chair next to the phone(652-7883)with a really thick book she was reading. She was very loved by her family.. My thoughts are with all of you. Deanna Woolard

Traci, I didn't know your lovely mother; I came across her memorial on Legacy.com. I'm so sorry for your loss. Mom's are so very special; I lost mine March 30th, 2010. I miss her everyday. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Mom, I have missed you so much this week. Still waiting for you to call and yell at me because I haven't called you all week... I'm gonna miss our 652-7883 number showing up on my phone. We've had that number all our lives. There are so many adjustments. I feel so disconnected these past few days. Dylan, Jeri, and Logan miss you too mom. Please visit us often. I love you mommy. Traci and kids
