Condolences
A wonderful Aunt
Everyone felt loved at Aunt Helena's house. She always had zucchini bread or some other treat ready when you stopped by for a chat. Even the neighborhood animals would come especially for a treat. It was impossible not to feel at home with her. She was kind, she was loving, and I miss her terribly. I know that everyone who loved her will as well. I am so very glad she was part of my life. I pray she is resting in God's arms and joining Grandma and her family already in heaven. All my love to you Aunt Helena and my prayers for healing for everyone who loved you.

My beautiful Aunt
My beautiful Aunt. I will miss you so much. You were to glue that held us all together. You were the one who taught me to love gardening. You taught me how to make fudge and can jelly from the berries we picked. You babysat me, my brother, my children. I love you and will always have your memories in my heart.
We and all of our children
We and all of our children remember fondly the wonderful days we shared at "Gram's" house. She was always glad to see everyone and so generous to share her home and her swimming pool with the whole crowd. We'll all miss her but never forget her.

Just adding another picture of a wonderful family
I wanted to share this picture as a reminder of a happier time. I am so grateful that we had the opportunity to share this event with my wonderful Aunts and Uncle Bob. I understand the Aunts talked into the wee hours of the night because they had so much sharing to do.
Aunt Helena
Remembering all the times we enjoyed family gathers at you home or just stopping by to say hi and take a swim with my friends when I was young. You always opened you home and your heart. You provided me with memories that I have often shared with our children. We have traveled a lot and one of my favor trips was with my dad going to CO and spending time with you, my aunts and cousins for aunt Dot's 80th b-day in February of 2006.
Rest in peace say hi to dad.
Love Bob Danielle Bobby Evan and Caelyn
