"Helen now rests in the arms of the angels with her sister Carol Ann."

There is nothing I can do

to make Helen come back.

There are no words I can say

that can replace the words you long to hear.

There are no answers I can give

that will satisfy your questions.

There is not another soul I can introduce you to that will ever replace Helen's

And, there is no love I can offer that will ever replace the love you shared.

I cannot promise your broken heart will ever be complete

I will not say it could have been worse

I will not deny it was a tragedy

I will not lie and tell you she will come back.

Helen never really left.

I do promise she hears you when you speak

I will say she loves you no matter the distance

I will not deny she is in a better place

And, I will not lie; she is waiting to greet you someday.

She is every step you take

She is in everything you do

She is in the air you breathe

She is every beat of your heart.

“HELEN IS LIKE THE WIND. YOU CANNOT SEE HER...BUT YOU WILL ALWAYS FEEL HER”
