Helen was the most amazing lady you could ever know. Her grace, kindness and gentle spirit would always be such a calming force. She exuded love and you could not help but smile around her. If you received a hug from her (and I would be shocked if you did not),felt like a home cooked meal!! You just wanted to savor it all day. She will always be in my heart and will be so terribly missed !!
