I want all of you to know your in my prayers and thoughts. Although I only knew your mom/sister for a short period of time that time was precious. Helen had an infectious smile and personality that just made you feel warm and comfortable all the time. I wish I would have had the opportunity to be around and known her longer. She was a beautiful lady in her pirme years and even more beautiful in the latter years of her life, and always made me feel like I had known her for many years. She had an uncanny ability to light up the room she was in with that great smile. Please know that all of you are in my prayers. May His Grace and Mercy shine upon you and lift you up and comfort you in this time.

It is with great sadness that I say goodbye to Helen but with a deep sense of gratitude that I was allowed to be a part of her life the past few years. In my short time with Helen, I was given many blessings. Her love of fun, joy, laughter and music were just a few qualities I will miss. But it was her warmth and humbleness that was most striking. Karen, Stacey and Syble rest assured Helen will be missed for these and many other things. In knowing her, we all are more complete and better. She was truely a beautiful person both inside and out. We all have been blessed.

Karen and Stacy,

I am so very sorry for your loss. Your mother was one extra special lady. She absolutely lit up any room she entered! I have many special memories of her from when I was just a little girl through my twenties. I always looked forward to seeing her!!..She ALWAYS made the day brighter with her beautiful, smiling face and happy, sweet ways. I would drop whatever I was doing to run visit with her!
There is never a good time to lose a parent but this has to be especially difficult just before Christmas... My heart aches for you...
Please know you are and will continue to be in my prayers.
Much love,

Cindy Goode

Words cannot express the gratitude I feel for the many blessings given to me by Helen. Helen was ever present when anyone in our family was ill. She always had a smile and consoling words. She never met a stranger and her warmth radiated. Our time together though short, was filled with fun, laughter and dance steps. Karen, Stacey and Syble may you find comfort in knowing that I along with everyone who knew her will cherish her inner and outer beauty forever and ever. May she rest in peace.
