    my deepest sympathy to Helen’s family, my name is Elaine, I got to know Helen just a little giving her rides for treatments, her nickname for me was ladybug, this afternoon, I found 2 ladybugs and couldn’t help but think of her and I believe in signs and I feel this was her. We had planned to stay in touch. Though we only knew each other for a short spell, we hit it off and what an inspiration she was. Had I known I would have definitely been there to pay my respects…RIP sweet lady, she said I was a gift from God to her, truth be know she was gift from God to me.
