Condolences to the Family

I am sorry to hear of Helene’s passing. I worked with her at MBI for many years. I really got to know her and her Daughter Jeanne when I did Ceramics with them. A fond memory is when my phone would ring in the morning after a snowfall and Helene would ask “Can you pick me up on your way to work”? My condolences go out to your Family.

To the family of Helene Miller, my sincere condolences on the passing on of Helene. I workrd with Helene for 27 of her 30 years at MBI/Danbury Mint. She was a sincere and happy person. She and I were the short ones. She was always nicely dressed, a hard worker and an all around great person to have known. She can now say Hi to another MBI deceased person, Elaine Baron.
