Hi Mom,
It's me, Stanley. I have your large portrait in my home, the same  portrait of you in your Memorial card. I so enjoy it and especially when I'm having a "chat" now and again with you as I'm looking at your portrait. I love you dearly and I miss you greatly. My consolation is knowing you're with Our Savior... I pray for you, and dad too, to be in the loving arms of Him.  I want you to know that my faith is growing stronger and stronger.  Lent has begun as of Feb 17th. I'm very passionate about Lent this year and the  coming of His Resurrection at Easter. I so want you to know that your unceasing prayers for your sons were answered, especially for me. I cannot thank you enough, but I always do anyway, because you brought me back to my faith and my One Holy and Apostolic Catholic Church. You showed me your strength of faith. I'm growing on the vine again. I love you dearly mom. I will always treasure all the memories I have of you, from my childhood through your passing. By the way, you showed me how to pass from here to 'There' with such dignity, humility, patience, and love. My richest treasure from you, was holding you in my arms for the last time as you silently left for Him. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. Please pray for me (and your other wonderful sons too). We need your prayers.
May we meet again, God willing. I so long to embrace you in my arms, kiss your cheek, and whisper, "I love you mom". Until then, I will hold you, always, in my prayers.   xoxo  Your "fleeter mouse".

Dear Mum, I came to know only today that you are already reached definitively in Your Father's House. I do remember you from today onwards in my  daily celebrations of the masses. Thank you Mum for all that you did for me together with our Scotty for compleating my seminary studies and to become a Priest of Our Lord. You  are a Wonderful Mother, Excellent Companion, and a Praying Faithful. A Good and Excemplary Christian who gave wonderful examplefor me to reach at the Holy altar of the Lord. See You Mum in the life to come! May the Good Lord give you Peace, Light and Eternal Rest. Please pray also for me.  
your beloved spiritual son. 
Father Xavier Joy  

My condolences and prayers to Helen's family.  She and Scotty took me in on more than one occasion in my crazy hippy days. My heart is full of love for them.

God Bless you Helen - it was a pleasure to know you.  My prayers are with you and your family

Helen will be missed for all she has done in her life, only people like me will know what that means to those who have had the wonderful time together, raising our children, God Bless Her.
