Another sister leaves us

[crecco]

Many of you may remember Helmar, a long time member from Australia. I just recieved word that she passed away sometime last Fri or Sat.
  I am sorry I do not know to many details. Her son found a girls name from another forum in her e-mails and just let her know this morning.

  May she rest in eternal peace!

OH NO  I am sorry girls but I am crying, tears of real grief, Helen was a crown jewel, we joked about me coming over to visit and riding Kangaroos, I will never forget this lovely woman.  I will miss her and I know she fought a hard fight,  she has left an empty spot in my heart.  Can heaven hold such beauty and courage as our dear Helen always held for us?   I will do her the honor of wishing her God speed and eteranl rest in the loving hands of our Lord.  The loss of Helen to me has been like the loss of a dear sister.  Thanks Kim the poem did help.  To my Aussie friend I will not say good bye, I will say, I'll see you soon and maybe we can go find one of those Roos to ride.   Marty

For Helen

Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there, I did not die.

Peace....Kim

I am saddened to hear this news. She was always nice to me in my posts when I was so concerned that something was wrong. She was always thinking of everyone else. I hope her family reads these posts and knows how much she will be missed by everyone. Her family is in my prayers, Colleen

I am so very sad to hear about Helen. She always had the kindest words for me and her positive personality shone through in her posts. She was a huge asset to this forum...
I will miss her dearly...
Rest in peace Helen - I know you'll continue to watch over the rest of us.
love Becky
