We have been partners in crime since 1986 and I would not have wanted to share all this time and memories with anybody else.
Helen has been my very best friend in life.
My most sincere condolences to Mike and Andrews family and all her relatives in Timmins.

I am looking forward to traveling to celebrate her life with her friends and family.

Sending love
