I love and miss you so much Mama but I know you are with Jesus and Daddy and all of your loved ones that are in Heaven. I was so blessed to have you and Daddy as my parents and taking care of you both meant the world to Tim and me. I'm so glad you aren't suffering anymore and that you know who we all are again. Love you more than you will ever know <3 and you are the Sunshine of my life <3 <3 <3

So sad to hear of Helen's passing. Worked with Helen at Lynam Insurance. I know where she is. In the loving arms of our Lord and Savior. Helen once told me; Always look at someone else's situation, and yours would not seem that bad! I have never forgot that. Rest in Peace my friend!

SO SAD TO HEAR ABOUT HELEN - SHE WAS MY GIRL FRIEND AT BRADFORD. SHE & HER FAMILY MOVE - BEING SO YOUNG I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE. I HAVE TRIED TO FIND HER LITTLE DID I KNOW SHE WAS LIVING IN PINSON . MAY SHE REST IN PEACE .

I went to Bradford school with Helen. We were close friends until she moved from Bradford. I have often wondered where she was and how she was getting along.

Helen was a sterling example of Christ in every area of her life. She and I were friends for over 50 years beginning at St. Paul's United Methodist Church in Center Point AL. Shortly after we formed a choir at the church in the early 60s she became a faithful and valuable member of the choir.

My family and I loved her dearly and I can't wait for our reunion in our Father's House and even the Heavenly...

I met Helen in April, 1979 when I started work at Lynam Insurance Agency. We worked together for over 20 years through many triumphs and tragedies. We made plans of what we would do once retired - most of which never happened. She was a good and true friend and I consider myself very fortunate to have known her. Save me a rocker on the front porch of heaven, Helen. I hope to see you again one day. Love you girl!

Mrs. Rogers was like another mother to all of us who were close with Susan growing up. "Mom Rog" was a loving, caring, beautiful example of what a Christian wife and mother should be, and I am forever thankful for the influence and huge blessing she was to my life.

My sweet Aunt Helen I will miss you and I love you. I know through the good Christian life you have lived you have earend your spot in heaven. Go in peace

Susan & Tim I am so sorry for the loss of your mom. Susan I know how much you loved her and I know she loved you back. Even though words can seldom express the thoughts that come from the heart please know that my heart aches for you. Let the memories that you cherish guide you during this very difficult time. I love you & Tim.
