Len and family, We feel so blessed to have met Helene. Betsy has cherished the trolls Helene gave her to win at Bingo. She always had a smile and kind word for Alan. Her sense of humor didn't abate during treatment or pain - she was always asking about our lives rather than dwelling on her own. She shared great stories of children and grandchildren, and we can only hope to have as many happy married years together as Len claims she gave him. We will miss her in life, but she will never leave our memories. Our condolences to all of you - she was a great one!
