Dear Lewis and Barbush families,
I'm so sorry to hear that Helen died. I remember back to 1968, I had just graduated from McDevitt and was working that summer for L&I.
Helen treated me so kindly and because we lived within 2 blocks of each other on Second St. in Steelton, she made sure that I had a ride to work with her each day. I'll never forget her kindness.
