Condolence From: Kenneth Collins and family
Condolence: Helen Nelson blessed so many people in the community and at church. The work she did is continuing on through others. She was a wonderful person and a wonderful teacher. She will be greatly missed at church and by all who knew her. She had a beautiful spirit, and was always friendly. We were privileged to know her from church. We looked forward to greeting her and handing her a church bulletin. She was also Ross' teacher at Gerard. Thank you, Helen! - Sincerely,
Kenneth Collins and family.
