I'm so sorry to hear of Helen's passing. Thank you for sharing your mom with us while she lived at Strabane Trails Village. She always had a smile on her face and was such a joy to visit with. On her way back to her apartment after lunch, she always stopped at our table and told us if she was going to do her puzzles or take a nap. She was determined to finish that puzzle book! Your family is in my prayers during this time. I hope that your memories of happy times with Helen will bring you comfort and peace.
