In 2005, Mom was inducted into the Manitoba Softball Hall of Fame as a member of the 1957-1962 CUAC Blues Senior Women Softball Team. She was a great fan of the Jets and Bombers too!
Gone is the face
we loved so dear
silent is the voice
we loved to hear
Too far away
for sight or speech
But not far
for thought to reach
Sweet to remember her
who once was here
And who, though absent,
is just as dear.
At Helen's request, no service will be held.

I will miss our phone calls Helen. Leslie, Kelly and Family, Corey & Rose, I'm so sorry for your loss. Helen & I made friends when I was 15 & she 16, //////////we have been in touch ever since and I considered her my best friend. The last couple months since Buddy passed, she tried very hard to try to get back to normal, but she missed Buddy so much, and now she is with him. I called her almost every day and we talked about all of you and how good ;you were to her. 'For that I thank you,, she loved you. Rest in Peace my dear Helen. Your favorite saying was "It is what it is" and I'm looking forward to getting together with your kids. Love, Ruby - Posted by: Ruby Ingram (Friend & Team Mate) on: Aug 16, 2021
