To Helen's Family.

It was strange walking into churche without seeing your mom down on the left where I usually sought her out. Since my teens I've dearly loved Helen as my mother's good friend and as a mentor for me. Many times she spoke of you all with great pride. She loved her family above all. She had a way of holding us all in her heart unconditionally.

She comforted me through our parent's death, my 27 year old son's cancer, and my readjustment to Severna Park when I came back after 35 years. I will always be grateful for her love and care. Somehow I know she will always be here in my heart!

We love you all; Retta Vieser Barkley
