Colleen, Debbie & Family: My prayers are with you all at this time. My memories of your Mom are of a very kind, loving and gracious lady and friend. We had many times of laughter, tears, and sharing stories of our past and always such positive conversations. You her family were very dear to her and she always had good things to say about you all. She was a very grateful lady, especially when she moved into her apartment and you her family stepped up and took that burden from her. Know how much your Mom and Grandma and Aunt appreciated you all. I call myself blessed to has been friend and neighbour with your family for over 30 years. Now she has now earned her Eternal reward where there is no more suffering, pain or tears but Joy unspeakable and full of Glory in God's Eternal Kingdom. God's Richest Blessings be with you all and bring comfort to you all. - Posted by: Pat Siwik (Long time friend and neighbour) on: Jul 24, 2015

Helen was a wonderful person; always full of smiles. We are going to miss our visits (her favourite- breakfast out for waffles and strawberries) We are so thankful that she is no longer suffering and is on to her next great adventure.

"Auntie Helen" was a wonderful, caring and kind aunt. My memories go back to being her flower girl at her wedding, living with her for a period of time when I first moved to Winnipeg, many Xmas celebrations and family get-togethers. She will be missed but I know that Uncle Brian, my parents, Uncle Pete and other family members and friends are welcoming her with open arms. My thoughts are with Colleen and Debbie and their families in this time of loss. - Posted by: Kathryn (Kathy) Cornell (Neice) on: Jul 22, 2015
