I had the privilege of attending the life celebration today for Helen. I was so moved by the thousands of people that have been touched by her life. I want you to know that as a result of what was said today at the celebration, I served my family dessert before dinner! Thank you for being the amazing witnesses of God's love that your family continues to be today.

Stanphill & Jones Family, We are keeping you in our prayers and wishing you strength & peace.

Jim, Nancy and family, Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time. What an amazing woman!!

Nancy & Jimmy, there are no words adequate to express our sympathy for your loss. You had an exceptional daughter, and we know that you are very proud of the person she was - daughter, wife, mother, and friend - as well as her many accomplishments. May God grant you and all of her family, grace and peace.
