Helen was such a sweet but strong lady. She leaves a great legacy of children, grand children and great grandchildren
Helen was such a lovely lady. She and Joe were always so full of joy and so welcoming to everyone. It was a blessing to know her. Sending love to everyone in the family. Peace, Paul and Franny.
Sending hugs and love to you all. Helen will be fondly remembered. She was always so kind and caring and listened to me babble always - of course nonstop!! Much love, Mary Ellen and Brian
So many warm memories of Helen. The cottage, Easter in Kingsville, player poker till dawn, eating all her food and she put up with all of us with good humour and patience. What a lady!
So sorry to hear of Helen's passing. Our sincere sympathies and condolences to you Phip and the Dann family, Fraumeni, Robson and CIRA FAMILIES. May she Rest In Peace xo. Mike and Gloria Demelo
Helen was a very important person in my life. She had a significant positive influence on my childhood as I spent a lot of time with her family at the cottage and in Kingsville. She was always so welcoming to everyone at her home. Later in life she welcomed our children to their cottage with the same pleasantries. As Joe used to say about midnight while playing cards, "Helen, can you make Frank some sandwiches? He's hungry.", and she would. Helen, you will be missed. Love John and Kathy
