Helen was such a sweetheart. Worked with her at Majestic and years later became one of her caregivers. We sat and shared our crochet projects we both were doing and just enjoyed talking . What a beautiful lady. It was a joy and honor to know Helen. Sending prayers of comfort to her family. God bless
