Helen Yvette Long born September 5, 1980, to Sherry Long and Paul Long.

Helen was an amazing, caring, funny, beautiful, kind person . She would never hesitate to help the ones she loved so much. She loved them every time she saw them. She made the ones around her feel so special.

Her motto was to forgive, life was too short, and you never know when it would be your last time with someone. She loved you for who you are, and could always see the bright side; her light and her love will be forever missed.

Let us celebrate the legacy of Helen, a devoted and loving mother, sister, aunt, and friend.

Helen is survived by four children Manael (26), Torrin (23), Naia (20), and Ezra (19); her mother Sherry, three sisters, nieces and nephews, and a host of extended family and friends.
