I first met Helen in 1980 when she lived in the apartments on Naples Ave in Venice, CA. The apartments were across the street from my Great Aunt's house. Both my Aunt and I loved Helen. She was full of fun and laughter with a zest for life. Helen was a forever friend and after leaving California we would still connect (even if there were a few years between). I miss that girl.
