Aunt Helen will always remain in my heart and thoughts. Aunt Helen is such an inspiration to many, including myself. I love the fact that she, as well as my grandmother Jean Wilson, emphasized the importance of education. That lady was full of umph and always had an interesting story to tell. Thanks for being such an influential example of a lady. We love you Aunt Helen.
