Bob and I were so blessed by Helen while we attended Abington Baptist. We also knew her for many years in our mutual work with the American Baptist Churches. We have not seen her in recent years due to our move from the Philadelphia area, but she was and will always be in our hearts. She was an extraordinary woman and her impressive intellect was overshadowed only by her graciousness, compassion, humility and great dignity. We are better for having known her and had her in our lives.

It was my pleasure as President of the Diaconate of North Frankford Baptist Church, to call Helen as our first female Pastor. We thoroughly enjoyed her inspiring preaching, her thoughtful pastoring, and her friendship. She will be missed.

Helen baptized me years ago when she was Pastor at North Frankford. She also used to let the youth group use her cabin at Arrowhead for retreats. Such a great lady who will be missed!
