We knew all the Kolodzej's from Harvey, Il. What a loving, caring, fun, wonderful Polish Family. Our Love and Prayers go out to all of the Kolodzej Family. We lived next door to Mary and Nick Mazzone, children: Michaelene and Paul.
Helen is now in Heaven with all her beloved heavenly family & friends who have been waiting for her. I know they are throwing a wonderful Polish Party in Heaven. Have smiles in your heart knowing that she is now in God's home. He will keep her safe from now on.
Love always,
CeCelia (Pala) Barclay

Helen was so sweet and I have so many fun and happy memories of her, especially growing up next door to her. I had a pool with a deck and that is where Steve, Bobby, the Finn family and I spent the majority of our Summer days. My mom, Helen and Dorothy were awesome! They made us lunch, brought us snacks and drinks so we could be outside soaking up the sun all day! She always was so nice to talk to, like one of the kids, joking around and always made me feel good about myself. She definitely will be missed. We will keep her and her family in our prayer s and hearts.
