Karel & Family, just found out from my sister about Mom. So sorry, my sympathy to all. I have thought of you & Mom & Dad often throughout the years, I was always made to feel so welcome in your parents home. My prayers are with everyone at this time. Will also add that choosing Hospice was a great choice! Love & prayers for all, Terri (Wisniewski) Arntz

Jeannine and family - We're so sorry for the loss of your mom - I know you were very close, and will cherish the last weeks you spent at her side. Love, Judy & Bob

Helen was a super neighbor and friend. She use to make us dishcloths for the cottage every year. We have missed her and her laugh at the lake the past several years. But, she was never forgotten. Love and Hugs to the DeVries family.

Gary, Please know how much sorrow I feel for you and the family- Helen was such a large part of my growing up life. I'll always remember her and all her friendship meant. Love, Pat Blankfort Post

Jeanine and family, Sad to hear about your Mother. Although I met her only a few times she was lovely to be around. Miss you much, call me sometime 931-378-7824

Helen was a wonderful person and I always remember her fondly! Reading the poem made me cry thinking of her. She will be missed horribly by Gary and her entire family! My thought are with the entire DeVries family! It is hard to lose a parent/wife/grandmother especially when they were so kind and loving!
