Ms. Helen was a sweet & precious lady, friend & sister in Christ. So sorry she is no longer with her family & us here on earth but she is in a much better place, as she would be the first to tell you. We will miss her sorely.

Sending condolences to the family of Helen. I remember her from my childhood as always being dressed so nice and her hair was always styled so pretty. Plus she was always nice to us young ones. Hugs to you Don Ray.
