Our condolences on the loss of your beloved matriarch, Helen. She and my mom were close friends for many decades, enabling her daughter Pam, myself and our families to remain close and connected.

Helen was my longtime friend in Denton Texas. We met and became friends when we both worked for a local attorney and remained friends forever after . After retirement, we formed a monthly lunch group of other women with whom we’d worked. Seeing Helen was always a joy; she was friendly, funny, warm, loyal, positive, a wonderful.mother, wife, person, friend. I miss her still.
