I was heartbroken when I heard Helen Mitchell had gained her heavenly wings? Helen was a God fearing woman. After hearing of her passing, I heard the song "Hold to God´s Unchanging Hands...You got to build your hopes on things eternal". It froze me in my tracks and I remembered how much Helen loved the Lord. Peace Be Still. Her kindness was contagious and her memory will live forever. Rest easy my friend.
