My Godmother was very special to me. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. We didn’t see much of Aunt Helen through the years due to living thousands of miles away but when we did see her we enjoyed her smile and her love that filled us with great warmth. She was a true kindred spirit and will be missed. We enjoyed our last visits with her and will always cherish those memories. See you soon, Melanie and Vernon
