So sorry to hear of Helen's passing. She and my mom, Jean Sinitski ( Sklar ) were friends from childhood and shared lots of memories. I am sure they are both in heaven reconnecting and having a great time.

Aunt Helen was a wonderful woman who told the greatest stories. Her and Uncle Linwood welcomed our tribe of 8 kids into their home with love and open arms. I have wonderful memories of all my aunts and uncles playing cards and just enjoying each other's company. Aunt Helen is the last of that generation for me. She was the historian of our Polish heritage and spent many hours putting together an amazing book for all of us. I will miss her, but I know she is with her beloved Linwood and the rest of the family in Heaven. I bet they had one heck of a card game on Christmas :)
