Mary, it was so nice to see you and your mom in Cordova a few years ago before my mom passed away (Elna Hansen). Your mom was always so upbeat and full of energy. I have a vision of your mom and dad, Bill and Babe and my mom and dad playing Canasta in heaven. Memories are comforting. Pam (Hansen) Russell

Mary...so sorry to hear about your Mom. I'm just sorry we never had more contact over the years...you are family. I was in Iowa over the weekend and never knew until this a.m. Donna & Gaylord also send their condolences. She tried to call you, but you weren't in the phone book. Know our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I had the pleasure of knowing Helen and she was a very sweet lady. I took care of her a few times when was at St Elizabeth. She was always so thankful for everything and a pleasure to be around. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
