Lucky, I share with you the loss of a mother on July 10, 2006 and your mom and mine were laid to rest in Holy Cross the same day and almost the same time. Bill Youngblood came over to speak to me while we were at the cemetary and told me of your loss. I just had to let you know I am thinking of you and know they we both will share some difficult days ahead. I had just retired June 30th to spend more time with my mother.

May the Lord give you strength during this time of loss. One of your "old" classmates,

Anthony and Margaret Matson

Our hearts go out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

I remember how much Helen loved life! What a great neighbor - as Charlie and I were growing up. When Mom was not there, Helen was... I think Helen may have kept us from killing each other many times. God bless Helen's family and especially Lucky and Chieko for their loving care of Helen during her illness. Debbie and my thoughts and prayers are with you.
