Helen leaves behind many family members no matter how far away they were never forgotten. Mom's friends were priceless and became like family members to us.

Helen had many jobs in her life including Pratt & Whitney Aerospace/Defense in Connecticut to later a cleaning business for the more affluent. Her most accredited profession was being a Mother and Grandmother and we thank God for without her, this family would not be here to carry on the love she bestowed on us.

Helen loved her family and also had a love of animals, especially cats and watching birds. She loved a good garage sale and we loved the treasures she would pick up for us. She was proud of her Irish Heritage and St Patrick's Day will always be her Holiday.
