Miss you so much, Helen. In Colorado skiing and you are ever present! Wouldn´t be doing this with your encouragement. Your Discovery Shop friends think of you often and cherish your devotion to ACS.

I have known Mrs. Mahony since 1965 when I met Anne in Junior High School and have been close ever since. She quickly became a second mother and friend. From chaperoning six 15 year old girls Easter week skiing, hosting a lovely cocktail party before our wedding rehearsal, opening her home to build the Sophmore Homecoming float and watching Miss America with us. I will miss her smile, laughter and twinkling eyes! However, all I have to do is look at Anne and see Helen. Goodbye Mrs. Mahony. Love, Robin
