Dear John and Ron,

I have so many great memories of Aunt Helen. She was a kind and generous woman of faith.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. The Marist Sisters in Ireland had Mass offered for her in our convent the day of her funeral, and we prayed for all of you.

Love and prayer,

Linda

I am truly sorry for your loss , Aunt Helen was an exceptional woman and very funny, I remember being there as a child and she would always tell jokes, and make us laugh… I will always remember those days at her house and will always love Aunt Helen. I am so sorry I could not make it out there for her services . I hope to see you in the spring/early summer when I can get out there. I love you all, stay healthy, Love Jennifer
