Susan, Marta, Carolyn, and family,
We are praying for each of you: that God would comfort you in your grief and grant you peace and even joy in remembering and celebrating Helen's life. Laura and I share fond memories of Helen and of your dad from our time at Center. One thing that stands out among those memories is that you loved and cared for your parents well, and they loved their family very much. What a gift.
In Christ,
Len

Helen was one of the finest women I have ever known. She was a wise and perceptive person who acted in every situation with unfailing kindness and grace. Her family was blessed to have such an example and matriarch - and I know you all know and are thankful for that.
May she rest in peace with her beloved Jack, and may you all find comfort in a lifetime of good memories and the knowledge that, in these last few difficult years, you returned in kind the many blessings she bestowed upon you over the years. She and you are in our prayers.

Susan, Marta, Carolyn & Families,
Please except our condolences on the passing of your mother. Dan has all sorts of good memories from being in the Nationwide family. I loved all the stories I would hear about the McJiltons' and Kellers'. I remember stopping in Tennessee and staying with your mom & dad on our way home from Florida shortly after they moved there. Your mom and dad were wonderful people and so lucky to have you girls and the care you gave them in their later years.
Sue & Dan
