my prayers and thoughts are with you at this time of your great loss
My husband and I send our condolences at the loss of your mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. You are so fortunate to have had such a vibrant, bright, loving and caring person in your life for so many years.
I know Helen from Thompson Gardens where she has attended my excercise classes for years right up until the Christmas break. She did not miss very often and has been a great inspiration to all of us.
We both know Helen from Christ Church and have enjoyed her company and conversations on drives to church here and in Sarnia.
Helen was always interested and interesting.
She will be missed.
MATT,KEN,PAUL AND FAMILIES.
SORRY TO HERE ABOUT YOUR MOM’S DEATH.BUT AT AGE 92 SHE HAD A FULL LIFE.I KNOW SHE WAS VERY PROUD OF HER FAMILY.OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU.TAKE CARE…THE PARKER FAMILY
To the family of Helen Gamble,
I found that it was one of my greatest pleasures to have gotten to know Helen over the past many years that she has come to my place to get her hair done. Many, many times we would chat mostly of her family, and all the things she found interesting, which I found she had a lot of interests. I was so impressed that at around the age of 80 something she decided to take a computer course. I told her how impressed I was with that.
She had a deep love for you all, which I found very touching as well.
I always looked forward to her appointment time so we could catch up and see what she was doing that month. But she was never too busy with her own life to not be interested in my own too. She would always ask about my kids and myself,etc.
I will miss her very much. I wanted you all to know how she impressed on me her love and compassion for others, and her keen sense of learning…anything that she found interesting. She never seemed to stop.
I would think she left a great legacy to you all.
I will always remember Helen fondly.
May God bless you all at this time of your loss.
With Sadness…
