Dear Lynn and Lenny,

Fae, Stu, and I would like to extend our sypmathy. Helen was a very proud woman who loved her family. Lynn I remember the good times we had at the Old Colony beach cottage together with her. Seems so long ago now. Gil and Harvey will be there to show our respects. It is hard to write because a long time has passed. You both know I had a lot of feelings for Helen and Sol.

Some of my fondest memories of childhood are when we went to visit Aunt Dorothy and Uncle Bill on Burnham Street and would get to see the Boardman family too. Helen was always so sweet to me. I loved her common sense approach to life. My heart breaks for you, Lynn and Len. I know exactly what it's like, unfortunately.
May her memory be a blessing.

Dear Lynn and family,

I remember Helen walking past our cottage on her way to the beach every day! She always had a smile on her face. She loved Old Colony Beach as much as we all did. May her memory be for a blessing.

Len and Lynn, So very sorry to hear of your mom's passing. She was a wonderful, kind caring lady, She had to be to put up with us when we were kids. Every morning we were at your house while you guys were eating breakfast, and noon during your lunch, before we had to run down the street to school. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to you.
