Helen, Ann, Terry and Vanessa were our neighbors as we grew up in Lowell. We had so much fun, even when we could not could not go in each other's yard we would play at the edge of the yard or just sit and talk to each other. (Smile) Unfortunately, we did not stay in touch when we moved away, but we cherish the memories made. My sister Rosemary and I send our deepest sympathy and pray for all of Helen's family as you celebrate her life and her homegoing. May God continue to keep you wrapped in His arms. Sending love and prayers, Beverly Spencer McKinney and Rosemary Spencer Bonner
