Helen was such a beautiful woman! I have fond memories of her coming to visit my grandparents (Joseph and Mary Jane). Helen and Lou would come to visit and always looked lovely! She had impeccable tastes and the most distinguishable laugh.

My condolences to her whole family.

Helen was a wonderful lady. She was our mother's best friend in college at
Fontbonne College in St. Louis. I remember all the stories Helen would tell
about them and they had so much fun with the Sisters. The Lord will have his hands full when Kate (Catherine Aylward Hayes) and Helen get together. She was a special person in our lives and she will be missed. Unfortunately I am out of town but wanted to tell you how much Helen
meant to us. Karin (Hayes) Cooper and Jeanne (Hayes) Dreiling

I just loved dear Helen! I had many happy hours with her at the bridge table- both at my lessons and playing with her and her friends in her home. We had such fun there and were always greeted by the dog she so loved! She made me feel as if I was the most important person in the room. I am sure the Lord and His angels gave her a royal welcome.
Much love,
Janie Strattan

Helen was such a lovely lady.

Helen was my neighbor and in my teens I was their baby sitter
and party helper. Later, we became just good friends.

I loved Louie, Helen, Bridget and Patrick!

Helen had wonderful taste and decorated as I do now.

Sending love and hugs to the family at this very sad time.
