A note of my remembrance of Helena. I met Helena in 1973 as I was dating her daughter Robin Lea, one day she asked me "do you know the Lord" I was dumbfounded without an answer, finally I said, well I went to church as a child and sang in the choir! She knew I wasn't a believer but she had faith that if I was the one who would one day marry her daughter the Lord would convict me and one day He did. She was always quick to give a complement and offer an encouraging word.
On another note of remembrance, Helena with Jack's support saw to it to send our daughter Virginia as well as 5 other grandchildren to Christian School, over a 20 year period they offered their financial support as well as transportation and tutoring. This was primarily financed not by excess funds but by starting a depression glass collection, most being bought and sold at yard sales and glass shows from Virginia to W Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania. They would travel and buy and sell their glass wares and the profits earned were used to finance the tuition's. Driven by her love for the Lord, she endured to do all she could do for her grandchildren, hoping that they would have every opportunity to come to know Christ.
In closing, Helena was a strong and vibrant lady, she loved children and was always Virginia's favorite Gram and now or before her going to be with her Lord, our grandson Ian was her delight and she was his, they would both beam with joy as they would converse. She was truly a special lady, quick to love and offer you her special smile and encouraging words, she will be missed by many.

We loved Helena and can think of no better description and remembrance of her than the Lord's words in Proverbs 31 (1599 Geneva Bible) describing the Godly wife:
“The heart of her husband trusteth in her, and he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good, and not evil all the days of her life. She stretcheth out her hand to the poor, and putteth forth her hands to the needy. She feareth not the snow for her family: for all her family is clothed with scarlet. Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth with the Elders of the land. Strength and honor is her clothing, and in the latter day she shall rejoice. She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and the law of grace is in her tongue. She overseeth the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children rise up, and call her blessed: her husband also shall praise her, saying, Many daughters have done virtuously: but thou surmountest them all. Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vanity: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates.”
