Aunt Helen, You have been in Heaven a week now, and I know you have seen Mr. Lewis. Tell him hello for me, and my dad. We loved you when you was with us, but we learned to love thru you. You are a inspiration to everyone than met you. In some way you touched my heart for many years, and I hope that I can just help someone as you have helped so many. Mr. Lewis said it best..."You are just as beautiful on the inside as you are on the outside". I will miss those phone calls to check on you...no need now, because you have Jesus to check on you. I love you and will miss you in so many ways. Nathan

What a pretty picture of Ms. Helen - and that sweet face with so much character and wisdom. My heartfelt condolences go out to her entire family and her many, many friends. Ms. Helen was a good, good woman and devoted to her entire family. I am glad to have known her. FiFi, Susan, Mendy, Trent - I know how deeply you'll miss your Mom and Grandmother, this sweet angel of a woman - but please know and believe today there is one more special angel in Heaven. Love is eternal and never-ending and maybe Aunt Helen and Uncle John are smiling down at all of you today - the family they brought forth - and they are beaming proudly. Gina, I especially know the special relationship you shared with Ms. Helen. To say she raised you up, nurtured you, guided you, stepped into your own Mom's shoes and was truly a Mother to you does not do her justice. She loved you. If we go through life and truly love or have the love of one person - we've fulfilled our destiny for all is fulfilled in love. "Love one another". She loved you, but she truly cared for you, and your well-being -- and you knew it. You didn't have to question or wonder or ask - you knew. Her warmth, her sweetness - wrap it around you now and feel her love for it hasn't gone anywhere. We're all connected for we're all eternal and I bet today Flo and Helen are smiling at you and they're rejoicing at what God hath brought forth in you. I'm thankful for their devotion to you, my friend, for you have known what heart's have ached to know for the eons, and still today ache to know - pure Love - and no one can take this away from you. Peace of Christ.
