We were classmates at SVH and Helen was always an inspiration with her smile. She was in the DR for my first two children born in St. V's. She was a truly loving caring nurse to all. I missed her at Lourdes but I felt her beautiful presence. God rest your soul, Helen.

Having dedicated herself so much to HFA, Helen will be missed by a great number of people. She was vivacious, funny and a very concerned member of the community. I am sorry to hear of her passing and I am glad to have known her.

Margaret Mary, You are in our thoughts and prayers. Always hold your "special" sister in your heart and memory. There will never be another person like her. Our family will miss her smile and enthusiasm for life. Until we all meet again, may God hold her in the palm of His hand.
