To the Pasternak Family,



It is with much saddness we learned of Helen's passing away. Helen and Bill were great neighbors for many, many years. After Bill's death Helen would share the ride with me to Goss for several years.



Our daughter, Carol also shares the fond memories of Helen being a kind and generous neighbor.



Our condolences to Helen's family. Our prayers and thoughts are with you at this sad time.





Sincerely,



Henry & Mildred

To the Family of Helen Pasternak,



It is with great sorrow that I read about Helen. I was her supervisor for 3 years and was honored to be at her party when she retird from Rockwell-Goss.



She was my secretary and I just wanted to express my condolences and to honor her with my fond memories of her during our time working together.



She was a very sincere and professional worker with a very keen sense of humor that made her very popular with her co-workers.

I will always look at her retirement photos with more nostalgia than before.



Since it would appear that I will not be able to attend her wake in person, I thought that I would avail myelf of this e-mail to remember in as special way as possible.



Good luck and God bless you all.



Sincerely,



Richard Nendza
