I have so many memories of Helen. Her strong faith and love for her family was an awesome testimony of her faith in God and love for people. She was always kind welcoming to me and had a great sense of humor. When I think of Godly women I think of her. My love and prayers go out to all of her family, especially Marilee and Ken and their girls, who have all been lifelong friends. Thank you for sharing her with me through the years! Love Linda
