I enjoyed knowing Helen over her years at High Pointe, our visits, and sharing Communion on Thursday mornings when the Pax Christi Homebound Ministry staff would bring Communion to our group.  She was delightful to be with, and I loved her sense of humor.  I remember her granddaughter, Debbie, being especially kind to her.  Eternal rest grant unto you, dear Helen.  My condolences to your family.

Helen was a great resident here at High Pointe. Her wonderful sense of humor has been missed. Her smile and laughter brought joy to many friends here. Her banters with Marian in the lobby were great fun to listen too. She was a "tough old bird" who shared many stories and insights.

She is being held in prayer. The family is in our thoughts and prayers also.
