    Helen and I met at Curves and it was an immediate friendship. Helen Marie was my mother's name so that made her even more special. She and I have remained friends through the years since I moved from Mitchell, moved to Florida and even lived in Germany for a couple of years. We emailed, sent cards and planned to meet this week for the first time in 12 years. I will always hold a special place in my heart for her. She was a fine lady and I will miss our contacts via email and cards. I know she was so proud of her family and I will keep you all in my prayers. MAY YOU FIND PEACE IN GOD'S LOVING ARMS AT THIS TIME,
