Dear Stefan, Frank and family, 

We were privileged to know Helgard at St. Andrews Church in Aurora and at the Aurora Community Tennis Club. She was a strong Christian and a very positive person to be around.

Our most sincere condolences on your loss,

 Katherine  and Colin Brown

Dear Stefan and family, I was very saddened to hear about the passing of Helgard.  Please accept my deepest condolences.  Helgard was a lovely lady and she will be missed by all who had the privilege of meeting her at The Meadows and the Aurora Seniors Centre.  Helgard line-danced her way into our hearts at the Friday night ASC dances.

Sincerely, 
Charles Sequeira

Stefan.  You will keep the memories you had with Helgard forever. 
I send you my deepest condolences Helgard was such a beautiful lady, may she rest in peace with our lord.

My deepest condolences from me and the family of many lives she had touched in the Dominican Republic to her family.

Not having the chance to meet her in person, i can proudly say she had a great heart. She had touched some many lives, she had put smiles on so many faces. She has a special in our heart here in the DR.

May God give peace to her Soul.

Dear Stefan and family,

Our sincere condolences to you on the loss of your beloved Helgard. Although we have only known each other for a short time of three years, we are grateful to have had you both as neighbours.  Helgard was a lovely lady, classy and warm hearted.  She will be greatly missed. Prayers for you and the family in the most difficult days ahead. We are here for you, if you wish. God bless you and keep you in His care.  Marilyn, John and Kerri-Anne Schneider

Dear Stefan, it is with sadness that we express our condolences to you in the passing of Helgard. We always saw you as a beautiful couple who greatly enjoyed each other. We always appreciated Helgard’s deep faith in her Lord and her generosity to Kingdom causes. We rejoice in the fact that she has now met her Lord face to face. May God comfort you in your loss with His presence.
Brenny and Nancy

I am so saddened to learn of Helgard's passing. She was such a kind person, and always cheerful and smiling. We met at the Aurora Senior Centre's Evergreen choir, and became friends. We golfed for several years together with Marg Walsh, also from the Choir. It never mattered how well we golfed, what mattered was the fun we had together.  
My condolences to her husband, Stephan, her son, Frank and his family, and her many relatives from her first marriage to Gerard. May you rest in peace, my dear friend.

Oh Helgard, my dear friend you will be greatly missed, your wonderful smile and your ability to make everyone around you happy.  However, you never were able to teach me to Line Dance which you did so well.  Rest in Peace.  Maureen Munsch

I am so sorry to hear about Helgard's passing.  I knew Helgard through her membership at the Autora Seniors Centre and as a member of the Evergreen Choir at the Centre.  She was always friendly, upbeat, and a pleasure to be around and I will miss her and her wonderful smile.  Rest in peace, Helgard, we will all miss you!
Ruth Church

I remember Helgard very well as she sang in the Evergreen Choir
at Aurora Seniors Centre.  She was a wonderful soprano singer.
I  have been missing her very much and I will continue to do so.
Joan Martin Brownlow

Helgard: 
We will all miss you and your beautiful voice so very much and the Evergreen Choir won't be the same without you. You were always so happy with your lovely smile. If Richard sings Silent Night in German you won't be there to sing it with him. Rest peacefully.
Sylvia Gilchrist
