Since I can remember, 3333 Emory Church Rd. has been my favorite place. My Great Aunt Helen made a home that was full of love, happiness, and comfort. I just hope she knew how important she was to me. I'm so lucky to have had her in my life.....I'll always love you Aunt Helen, give mama a hug for me :)

My Great Aunt Helen was a very kind and loving individual. Even though I only had a few visits with her throughout my life, I will always remember her warmth, her laughter, and her kind ways. She will be greatly missed and I feel that her legacy will be that she made the world a better place for everyone who had the chance to know her.
