John L. Helfer

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

ellie, we were neighbors so long ago the boys would play with my three girls. milford street. john was always laughing and joking. i am sure he will sadly be missed by all. judy and john gilligan

I knew John for the last few years of his life due to ham radio. As a former parole agent here in Missouri and Illinois, his career was of interest to me. I came to enjoy our contacts in emial or with regard to ham radio and when Mike told me John was gone, it was a great disappointment. While I sincerely trust in Jesus, I will miss John's friendly nature and the fact he was a devoted follower of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and, trusted in the Blessed Hope, which we all must trust in...

You and your family our in our prayers & thought at this difficult time.

may the Lord of peace and love watch over you and bless you always.

Ginny and I were deeply saddened to learn of John's death. Our memories date back nearly 40 years from the days when John was the friendly person at the Jail that would help us cut through red tape to accomplish our jobs.

I have always been impressed with the devotion to family that John and Ellie have fostered. You have three wonderful sons. After all, the best legacy to the world one leaves is seen his children.

Qualities of love, respect, loyalty and kindness are those...

Ellie,

Diana and I were so saddened to hear of John's death. Please know that you and your family are in our hearts and prayers.

Love, Ray and Diana
