So sorry to hear of Helen's passing in LA. We had a good visit before she went to LA to visit her other daughter. We met in the late 80's and shared a love for German Shepherds. Then her daughter, Lyndy and Ron moved into our neighborhood and we visited more often. We will miss seeing her regularly. Sympathies and prayers, Dorothy & Dicky Benson

I remember when Helen and Sonny first came to Charleston and they spent some time with Lloyd and I. She was friendly, funny and a very special person. She loved her family and I know she will be missed by all.
