Helen, you could never sit still...always had to be knitting and donating the mitts, towels, afghans to the needy. You worked hard all your life and made the best of it. You had a long, healthy life and are resting now. My sincere condolences to Debbi, Jim and family - Posted by: Carol Rybczuk (Friend) on: Jan 06, 2026

To Deborah, Jim and family we offer our sincere condolences. Mom was a very special lady. When health permitted, she was always there to support us, and share her world famous egg salad sandwiches, made with love with all but Deb(Deb doesn't like) so mom would make her something different. "A heart of gold stopped beating, hard working hands went to rest." In my thoughts and prayers. Marcy (Gary) - Posted by: Marcy Saunders (friend) on: Jan 04, 2026
