I was a Caregiver for Helen. She was such a wonderful person, with a heart of gold. She always had a story to tell, about anything you could ever imagine. She loved sharing stories about her son and her family. I think about her very often. I am truely saddened to hear of this. She will always have a special place in my heart. Bless the family, and may she enjoy her new journey.
