To Helen's Family, I am so shocked and very sorry to hear about Helen. She was such a wonderful person who touched many people. I knew her through the bank. She always had a smile for me and stories to share when I saw her. I will really miss her. With deepest sympathy.

Geneva, Carol & Karen-Please accept my most heartfelt sympathy for the loss of your beloved mother. Helen was a very valuable and treasured member of our Firstmerit family. I know that I am blessed to have known and loved her for the last six years and I feel very honored that I got to work with her Wednesday night. I know that each of you know how much your mom loved you & your children and she shared stories and memories of your time spent together with all of us at the bank.I hope you can find comfort knowing that Helen is in heaven and we will all see her again. The Lord will keep you from all harm--he will watch over your life; the Lord wil watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.
