I was sorry to read of Helen's passing especially since it is about a month after Irma Meier's passing. Helen & Irma were best friends & great volunteers for the Strong Memorial Gift Shop, more than 25 years ago, when I met them as a volunteer for Infant Hearing Alert. Occasionally we had coffee together & talked about our lives as German Jews. Helen frequently talked about her granddaughter who was studying Arabic and her son's illness. My husband & I returned to Canada in 1994, thus I lost touch with them, but have I have not forgotten them!
