Helen touched my life when I needed a friend after the loss of my 17 year old son. She knew and understood what I was going through! I will never forget her kindness. And I will cherish great memories filled with laughter and friendship camping on the Ohio River and at Chris's Schoolhouse! My thoughts and prayers are with her family. (I WILL MISS YOU HELEN,REST IN PEACE WITH YOUR DEAR SON!) Love, Sally
