  1. Oh, I am sorry to read about the passing of Helen. She was such a neat lady and I really admired the way she conducted the meetings of our garden club. She made everyone feel welcomed. I will always remember her kind smile and her knowledge of gardening. She will be missed. May she rest in peace.
