Dearest Patti and the entire family of Helen Bitts,
I had a little visit with Helen recently. I am so glad I did, and I am sad to hear of her passing. I always enjoyed Helen’s kind nature and hospitality. She often had us to her house for a Catholic Daughters meeting and luncheon. She served as our Recording Secretary and took beautifully handwritten minutes. After moving to Conestoga View, Helen often played bingo in Cafe’ 900 when Catholic Daughters volunteered.
Please accept sincerest condolences from me and from all the Catholic Daughters of the Americas in Court Queen of Peace #1023, Lancaster, PA. A Mass requested by our court was offered for Helen on Sunday, Nov. 18th because she had a birthday this month (Nov. 5th), another will be offered for Helen December 16th with the intention of “Rest in Peace”, and a third on January 20th for the family “With Sympathy”. All these Masses are offered through our Pennsylvania State Court at 10:30 AM at St. Therese of the Child Jesus Church in Altoona, PA. The donations will be sent to help the seminarians studying at the Pontifical North American College in Rome. 
 
Sincerely, 
Margaret
