Helen loved being a wife and mother and dedicated her life to this cause. She was passionate about music and instilled that love to each of her children through lessons of all kinds. She used her many musical talents to serve her church as the organist and accompaniast of countless performances. She was industrious and would make our clothing. She also thoughtfully made beautiful personalized needlepoints for her children and many grandchildren. Our mother was conscious of healthy eating and made the nutrition of her family a high priority. After the birth of Janette who has special needs, Helen became invested in educating herself and her family into methods of caring and providing a high quality of life for her. She became an advocate for families with these types of needs and regularly donated her time and resources to these efforts.  Helen excelled at supporting her family through the many passions and difficulties of their lives - her mission was truly serving others.
