I am so sorry for your loss. My heart and prayers are with the family. I didn't know Helen well, but to know her was to love her. She was a sweet loving woman. I know she will be greatly missed. God will give you Grace to bare.

How blessed I am that The Lord orchestrated my path to cross with Buddy and Helen Stroupe! Helen was like a mother to me, since I had lost mine at an early age. Her love and compassion made such a difference in my life. She was a true disciple of our Lord, loving Him first, His Word and His people. Helen was the real deal! I loved her dearly.
