You were loved by all who knew you and I am blessed to have called you my friend. You had a lasting impact on the lives of hundreds of students during your years of teaching in the West Memphis School District. You were one of the best! May you now rest in peace.

Mary Helen was the kindest young lady, and always had a big smile for anyone she encountered. I'm sorry she is gone from this world, but now she is certainly praising The Lord in her new home.

Mary Helen lived down the street from me when we were children. She was in the 4th grade and I was in the 2nd. I lost touch with her when she left for college. We reconnected a few years back and had lunch. So thankful for that opportunity and thankful for our friendship. Many good memories.
