I was a very close friend of Helen's when she worked at the Ottawa TC. We shared so many laughs, dinners, and confidences; too numerous to recount. Years ago, when she bought a townhouse, she had a painting party and I, and another friend of Helen's, Debbie Boisseau, painted her bedroom. What I will remember most about Helen was her beautiful smile, her infectious laugh, and the angelic twinkle in her eyes. Sending my most heartfelt condolences to her family that she adored.
