Suzanne and family…. on behalf of my Mom, Lily, we want to express our condolences on Helen’s passing. However, 100 is a remarkable age and I know my Mom would be attending the service on Monday if she were able to. I’m sure you all have many fond memories, including her 100th celebration last summer. Wishing you God’s peace at this sad time.
We were very lucky to meet Helen and Suzanne at the nursing home. In her last weeks, Helen still enjoyed a nice meal. She is sleeping peacefully now. God bless you and your family. We were very privledged to have even met such kind compassionate people. Take care!
This note comes from Nancy Schofield representing the Unit 3 UCW group from Metropolitan United Church of London. Helen was one of our faithful members for many years before she moved to Grandwood.
Our group feels sorry that she has gone and offers all her family our sincere condolences. She was a wonderful lady, always friendly and kind to all of us. Just the day before her obituary was in the paper, I was arranging our next meeting and I came across the lovely biography that was presented at her 100th birthday and wanted to save it. I put it in a box with other items that we wished to put in the Church Archives. I trust that you will agree with this.
Since our next UCW meeting is on Monday at 12:30 p.m., I will not be able to attend either her funeral or the visitation. I am truely sorry but will send on my sympathy and the condolences of our group. May God be with you all in this time of sorrow.
Very sincerely,
Nancy Schofield

Love, Karen, Dave, Amanda, Jenn
My sincere sympathy in the loss of your dear mom. She has lived a very full life and given so much to so many. Helen will be dearly missed but has left so many wonderful memories.
I would like to express my deepest sympathy regarding your loss. I can truly understand how it feels to loose a loved one in death. These must undoubtedly be some very hard times for your family. In such times, it is very difficult to find comfort, considering the harsh world that we live in. In my case, and in the case of many, we can always find comfort in God’s Word the Bible. For example we find God’s promise to all mourning ones in Isaiah 61:2,3. I hope this brings comfort to you and your family.
