Helen-Anne Cosgriff

To Stephanie, Jonathan, and Family,
When I stayed with your grandmother in Nantucket I found her to be a wonderful woman. She was smart, witty, charming, and lovely to talk to. I remember all the stories Stephanie told me about her grandmother taking care of her fish Eddie through his fin disease as if he were a dog or cat. I have nothing but great memories and I am so sorry for your loss.

Our Dearest Helen....Lady of Grace, Charm, Intellect and Wit. We will sorely miss your laughing voice, wisdom and hilarious stories. We were truly blessed to have met you at Cliffside Beach on a beautiful Nantucket day and will always cherish your friendship.......
FOR HELEN-ANNE
O, Gracious Lady
You touched our lives
On that Nantucket day
With warmth of smile
With loving heart
With kindness that would stay.

Now, etched in our minds
Is the joy and fun
You brought into our heart
With tales of wisdom
And legends of lore (Edgar Allen Crow!)
You could masterfully impart.

Above all else,
We'll ne'er forget
The gift you did bestow:
Your precious friendship
Valued so,
And a kind and loving glow.

To Buzz, Kathy, Nancy and Grandchildren our sincere condolences and appreciation for the joy of knowing your mother.

Your mother was a strong and intelligent woman. I always held the deepest respect for her. Her presence on the earth will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time.
