Helen was a member of St. Paul’s United Church, St.
Paul’s UCW (life member), Retired Teacher’s

strong supporter of many charities.
Helen is survived by a niece, Elizabeth McNeil (David) and a

A memorial service for Helen will be held at J.A. McAdam

staff at Windsor Court and Thomas Hall, Shannex for their excellent
care and acknowledge Helen’s special friends, Mary Matchett

our lives
That never leave us even

They are gone»
