Not sure what to say?

I moved to Palm Springs in 2007 and was planning a return next month to Scottsdale. I wanted to meet with Helen and update her. She was very special to me. She was our outstanding Toastmaster President and terrific friend. She always kind, gracious, competent and a leader in business networking. I wanted tell her how much she meant to me and how I missed her. I want to thank Cathy,Steve, Matt & Ginnie for keeping this Guest Book online permanently allowing me to express my condolences for the...

I lost touch with my godmother Helen several years ago, and now I know why. We usually were only in touch around the holidays, but I never felt like we were very far away. Now, I know she is still there watching over the many people she loved and who were lucky enough to have her in their lives. I hope time has given her family some peace.

I just came to know about Helen's passing. Some people you meet once in your life yet they leave an impression that stays with you forever. She is one of them.
God bless her soul.

I just found out today from a fellow real estate agent that my dear sweet friend Helen Pugh passed away. Helen was always so genuine and caring. When my only child Nicklaus passed away in 2009 Helen always had words of comfort for me...we would have long chats and I so enjoyed her company! I will miss you Helen but I know you are now in Paradise with our dear Lord.

Helen and I sipped coffee after Toastmasters talking enthusiastically about life. She greatly inspired me.

Rest in peace, sweet angel.

Helen was one of the most gracious ladies I have ever known. We met back in 1990 at John Hall and Associates where we were both Realtors and became friends. I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear of Helen's sudden passing. I will miss her smile and her caring way. The real estate community in Arizona has lost a treasured and valuable member. My thoughts and prayers are with her family during this difficult time.

Helen you were so graceful, elegant , caring and kind. You helped my daughter Katie achieve her singing goals, you helped me with so many things and we had many laughs together. It's difficult to realize you are gone. You are so deserving to be in the Lords presence and I know Helen you are now living with Jesus in eternal peace with joy and laughter. To her family who misses her dearly, you were truly blessed to have her as a Mother, Grandmother, Aunt and everything she could be for you....
