My heart is broke I loved miss Helen as my own family. When I moved next to her she put me under her wing and looked out for me. Many nights of coffee food and life time movies.She had the biggest heart and took care of me when I got attacked from a dog….and when my sister got murdered Helen helped me thru it all. My hugs prayers to all the family…. I truly loved her.
I`m so sorry i can`t be there my heart is there for all the family , keeping you all in my prayers. I`m so sad just like all of you ,she was one of my best friend she would do anything to reach out and help. I want to remember all the great memories we had together. She was such a great neighbor plus got to know all her family feel like i was part of it.She will never be forgotten, Thank God for John and Sharon, they was so good to her in her last days , she had a good life. One day we will all meet with her plus with all our love one who has gone to heaven . Sadly missed by Rose and George…
Aunt Helen you will be missed dearly, You would always come to every gathering we had. You were a special person I was born on your kitchen floor and you gave me my nickname that has stuck with me to this day. You will always be in my heart I love you Dearly, muffy””
I have lost the best Mother-In-Law imaginable. We shared so many laughs over the years and she taught me so many things. As my grandkids say Granny Helen was the cool Grandma`. When I left Wednesday night I knew you were ready to go home . . . I could tell by the look in your eyes that you were tired and ready and I told Tyke as much. You lived a great life and were an inspiration to so many people. Your work here is done now go rest high on that mountain. We will treasure the memories forever. <3″

So sorry to hear of your loss, our thoughts and prayers go out to the family.
Ill miss you Mom, such a beautiful woman, you were always there for me, no matter what, the biggest heart of all, your smiles, hugs, kisses. Mom, I know the below is how you would want it to be: Do not stand at my grave and weepI am not there, I do not sleepI am a thousand winds that blow,I am the diamond glints on snow, I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn`s rain, When you awaken in the morning`s hush, I am the swift uplifting rushOf quiet birds in circled FlightI am the soft star that shines at nightDo not stand at my grave and cryI am not there I did not die. I am now an Angel walking with you: We will miss you mom
