To all the Helmstetter family, I am very sorry for your loss. I worked with your dear sister at Mercy for many years. She was an excellent nurse and a joy to work with. She had a tremendous work ethic. I remember going to St Mary's for a birthday party at your mothers beautiful home and seeing the gorgeous staircase that she had refinished. She was a hard worker and would do anything for you. I saw her recently at the grocery, and was truly shocked to hear she had died. I will always temper her fondly. You are all in my prayers.
