Both Helen and Lucille were a great pair of sisters and lots of fun to be around. As a child my family would make the annual trip to visit our Kentucky relatives and our " home base " would be at Helen and Lucille's big house in Versailles. They treated us to wonderful meals and great stories about the family. Helen now joins all her siblings and cousins in their heavenly home. God Bless you all. Herb Freundt - Chicago, IL.
