My condolences to Helen’s family. I was a neighbor of Helen’s for many years at the Grayco Apartments. I moved in a few months before Helen did (32 years ago) and I enjoyed talking to her on numerous occasions either in the laundry room, in the lobby, or on the sun roof. Most of Helen’s neighbors at the Grayco are gone now, but I am still there. I was only 25 years old when I first met Helen. I was sorry to hear of her passing, but Helen is now at peace.
