It's just by chance I discovered that Helen has passed on to her final reward. I was googling for her phone number which I had misplaced.
Helen was my Mother's (Doris Cloud Breuer)first cousin and I spoke with Helen on a few occassions when she called to check on Doris. Her charm, love and warmth came through the phone. I wish I had met Helen personally but I know she was larger than life and loved by many. She survived her cousin Doris by a year and a half and Helen was four months older. I know they're now enjoying each others company again.
Please accept my sympathy for your loss of this wonderful lady.

What a special person! Devotion to family is what I remember most, plus being an absolutely super "big sis" to my Mom, Marjorie. This old world is a little poorer without her.
