She is preceded in death by her parents; two sons, Gary and Bill Stewart; daughter, Nancy Wood; and grandson Jerry Henderson.
My heart is breaking for the phone calls I kept meaning to make and for the loss of a an aunt that was so very kind and caring to her sister-in-law, my mother until she passed away. Aunt Helen was a dear lady full of grace and kindness and I am mourning her greatly.
