Visitation will be held from 11 AM to 1 PM on Saturday at the funeral home. Mary Helen beamed with unusual beauty and grace that was only enhanced by her strength, intelligence and drive. From home projects, gardening, singing, cooking, fishing, sewing and soooo much more. Mary Helen was quite a woman. We will miss her and are grateful for all she has done for each of us as a sister, mother and grandmother. In song with her Angels, Mary Helen is gone fishin and is in our heart, mind and soul forever. Mary Helen passed away on December 26, 2014. She is survived by her daughters: Rene' Higginbotham, Terie Musselwhite, Elizabeth Spence, Kimberly Staples, Andrea Durbin and Shannon Musselwhite as well as her brother Charles Douglas Bracewell and her flock of loving grandchildren.
