To the Gallagher Family: Please accept my condolences on your loss. Mrs. Gallagher helped my daughter, Katherine with her speech problems at Jameson school. She was very patient and caring. I hope your memories will comfort you during this difficult time.

Irv and Megan,
Our hearts go out to you both and to Helen's family. We also know that Helen was indeed the love of your life and that is a blessing. You are in our thought and prayers. Certainly God did not put us on earth to suffer and die, yet we all face that reality. The central mystery of the Christian faith is that through that suffering we achieve eternal life. We know Helen is in Gods hands. Jack and Donna Hicks
