Thank you for creating  my most favorite person in the world.  I’ll always be grateful for you. Love and miss you Helen. 

Take comfort in knowing that now you have another Special Guardian Angel to watch over you 

This world has lost a special  soul and a wonderful family friend, who was an angel to our Aunt Shirley ❤️I am saddened by this, for the two of them , but know they will meet again.
You will be missed Helen! Your raw honesty and undeniable humor is a gift  not many are blessed with .. thank you for the years you shared with us down here. Much love to you and your family!❤️❤️❤️

We went to school together for 8 years you were a hoot best years ever RIP my friend. 

Helen, you have been a second Mom to me.  I am so grateful for all of the memories we created over the years.  I know my Mom may not have survived raising kids without you by her side! I love and will never forget your blatant honesty and relentless spirit! Thank you for being my friend too! You were a great dog Mom to Parker! Francis, Mike and Kevin…know your Mom was the best!! Love you all!! 

Helen, Bob and I will miss your long talks and your bubbly personality.  Tropical Palms has lost a beautiful and loving person. RIP

Helen was a very special lady.  I didn’t know her long but she will definitely be missed.

Helen, my friend. I still can’t believe your gone, you were such a vivacious, loving and caring person. The park will never be the same without you. You can RIP knowing that Parker is in a loving home with Johanna and Henry, as was your wish. RIP my friend, I will miss you.

Helen was the ideal neighbor and friend. She always had a smile and a story to share. Our community in Punta Gorda is devastated at the loss of this vivacious, happy, beautiful soul. She touched my life in so many ways, always willing to lend a hand or offer advice. But most importantly, she, for me, was my surrogate mom, she never even knew how important she was to me in that capacity because I never got to tell her.  We were going to have lunch this weekend and I was planning on sharing with her the significant impact that she’s had on my life.  To her  family, I know how deeply she loved each of you as she spoke of you often. I offer my most sincere condolences as Helen was such a blessing to all who knew her, I know it must be such a difficult time for you right now.

I will always remember how much fun we had at happy hour and sharing Chinese dinners with you  You will be missed my friend

Our prayers  go to all the family of Helen. We have known Helen for years and she is a wonderful woman and a very great companion to Parker. We will miss her allot. She truly was a asset to our Tropical Palms family.   She was so very worried about having to have the Covid 19 shots, but, we tex'd back allot (couldn't get together like we wanted during that time). She came through that fine. She will be missed.
