Helen was a wonderful women. She use to be a dental patient of ours and became a lifelong friend. She will be sadly missed. We loved bringing her a chocolate chip mint milkshakes at the nursing home as she look like a little kid enjoying them so much. We loved receiving her hand made cards. They were so beautiful. She is finally at peace at home with her lord. Until we meet again.

I will always treasure Helens friendship and her wonderful sense of humor she was a true lady. We don't like to say goodbye to those we love. It is right for us to weep but there is no need to despair. Helen had pain here and struggled the last few years but her pain has ended now and she is in a better place.

What a dear, dear lady! We were so fond of Helen, she lifted up all around here with her wonderful outlook on life. I have some of her artwork, and will treasure it, and I will cherish the years that she sang in our church choir. You were a blessing to so many, Helen.

Helen was a lovely lady and will be sadly missed by many who knew Helen. She was a very close friend to my sister Dottie Landiak and I will answer for Dottie being she does not have access to a computer. They had many years of happiness when singing with the Power & Light chorus, going to nursing homes, Greenland and many other places I can't remember. God Bless to you Helen.
