Sister Helen Conway

I did not know Sister Helen Conway very well. I took her place at St. John Vianney Church as R.C.I.A. Director. As I attended daily Mass at St. Jerome, I would see her greeting the people. She did make herself visible to the people. God grant her peace.
Sister Ruth, S.S.N.D.

Sister Helen had a special way of showing her care and compasion last year when we lost Bob And Lee. We will always keep her in our thoughts and prayers.

Sister Helen was like a member of
the family...I'll never forget her!
With her kind, encouraging words
she helped my husband when he
had his cancer, and me throughout
my health problems as well...To me,
she was like a saint, an answer to
my prayers...I love her very much
and will miss her tremendously...

Helen, my cousin, was a truly wonderful person. She will be greatly missed in our family circle. Her positive attitude to life inspired us to give thanks to God for all He has given us, to keep in touch with each other, to have a positive outlook on life and to live life “one day at a time”.

Our parents (R.I.P.) often told us how helpful Helen had been to them when she spent her holidays with them in Musicfield in the 1940s. The anecdotes of that era, always in the spirit of fun and...

Sister Helen, a true Sister of St Clare, who was first and foremost a contemplative woman of prayer with a special love of the Scriptures and the Holy Eucharist. From these life-giving gifts flowed her serene spirit of prayerfulness, kindness and humility.

We thank God for her. Our lives have been enriched because of her gentle presence, faith, love, encouragement and incredible compassion that brought dignity and life to all whose lives she touched.

The name Helen means light....

I will Miss Sister Helen with all my
heart...God sent her into our Family
when we really needed someone...
Through my Fathers Cancer, and
my Mothers illness, just by her
presents, she helped restore
our faith and Love for God...And
I'm sure my Father in heaven
waited in line, to greet her, and
thank her, for what she did for
us...She will be missed...

J.M.J. Blessings to the Legion of Mary at St. Jerome's Parish! May Sr. Helen continue to guide & 'direct' us with The Holy Spirit & Our Blessed Mother! Sr. Helen..'WELL DONE..FAITHFUL ...SERVENT..ENTER'..Amen

I will be indebted to Sister Helen forever. My husband barely walked into Christmas Mass that afternoon in 2007. He was almost 6 months hospitalized that year. Sister spotted him and immediately started a dialog. Sister held his hand and prayed with him. Something very special became apparent. He's still not 100% and never will be, but alive. Sister had something very intangible. I will continue to pray for her and to her.
