Fond Memories
 
     Our mother graduated from nursing school with Helen and they remained close friends. As children, we remember the interesting missionary stories that Helen and Jean would share during their visits home to Altoona to see our family.
     Sharing God’s love with others in thought, word and deed is how we will always remember Helen. Our last visit with Helen in July brought great joy to all as she got to meet our entire family for the first time. We all had a wonderful visit.
     No doubt, as Helen sees God face to face, and Heaven’s gates are opened wide, she is now receiving the greatest Christmas gift ever. She touched our lives and we are truly blessed to have known her over these many years.
 
Sisters,
Debbie Santella, Diane Shultz and family.
