Our sympathy to all of you on the loss of your mom. We enjoyed visiting with Aunt Helen whenever we had time - especially hearing about the times you lived in our old house on the farm.

Helen was a wonderful friend and cousin. Always willing to listen and give her hospitality. I emailed to Ann, Bill, Kathryn and Donald...a "Remembering Helen Castle" -- things that gave me insight to her character and generosity.

Our deepest sympathy on the loss of your mother. Every Christmas we received a wonderful personal letter from her with updates on the family and reminiscing about the time we had her over for tea (she always started it with "Dear Children".
(We were blessed to purchased the house at 27 Rugby Place)
