Aunt Helen was a beautiful, kind, loving gift to our family. Memories of her delicious cooking especially her gravy and cheese cake will go down in history. Aunt Helen was a wonderful Godmother to me as well as a second mom. She will be greatly missed by myself, my wife, and our girls. Rest In Peace Aunts. We feel a little better knowing an angel is watching over us.
