To Helen's family,
My sympathy to you. Helen was the sweetest person in our nursing class 1960. She would listen to our stories of woe and always had a smile for all. I'm sure she will be missed by all, but you will have wonderful memories.

Aunt Helen, we will all miss your sweet smile, your laugh, your kind words of advice, your dedication to your family and your love for your husband. Life on earth will not be the same without you, but we will cherish you in our memories and know you will be with us each day helping us get through.
