Helen was a Neighbor of mine in New Hampshire at THE LAKE. Back in 2001 when my then Wife Sally Divorced me she was nice enuf to ask me to consider moving to Florida. So I came down to visit and have a look around. Turns out that 4 of my close work friends live within 5 miles or so of here so I relocated an Bought home here. Over the years I got old and as a result I lost contact with Helen and now I am so sorry.

She was a great friend and the world will miss her

To all of her family GOD Bless
