I will always see the light of Helen in the faces of her children. She radiated joy, love, and acceptance, and her smile brought warmth to every room she entered. Seeing Helen at church or family gatherings always brought me happiness, especially as she delighted in the company of her loved ones.

Her contributions to the community were profound, supporting the church and its missions with unwavering dedication. She will be deeply missed but never forgotten-cherished in our hearts and remembered with the utmost fondness.

With heartfelt condolences,
