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.

HI Charlotte… I was deeply moved and shocked to read about your Mom. I thought so much of your Mom and Dad, they were great people! All of her friends at Peachtree are very sad and we all would like to pass our condolences on to you and your family. If and when you decide to have a service can you please let us know.
Warmest Regards

How can one express their feelings in words when you lose a loved one ? I don’t think you can when that loved one was so special as Aunt Helen was to so many. She was a very caring, quick witted loving person. I was so happy to have spent time with her in October . Aunt Helen will always have a special place in my heart and I will miss her dearly. Charlotte, Bob, Dave, Supajee, Thomas, Irene and the rest of Aunt Helen’s family, I am very sorry for your loss.–xoxo
We were deeply saddened to hear of Aunt Helen’s passing. She was such a wonderful lady.I am so happy I got to see her at her 85th birthday party in Airdrie, as it had been quite a few years since I had seen her before that. She was one of my favourite Aunts, welcoming me into the family when I first met her. She had a heart of gold filled with so much love and kindness. Dear Charlotte and family , we are so sorry for your loss. She will be greatly misses. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you .

To Charlotte & family,
Our deepest sympathies to you and your family. Your mom was a special friend to my mother Barbara Jones at Sandalwood. She was a vibrant lady and we enjoyed visiting with her each time we visited Sandalwood. She took my mom under her wing and off to bingo every Friday night. Mom would never have won a game if it was not for Helen sitting beside her checking her numbers. We will miss your mom. Barbara, Kelly & Linda Jones
Charlotte and David – we wish to express our sympathies to you and your families. We will remember your mom as a warm, calm, and comfortable lady, always easy to chat with on a visit.
To Charlotte & Family, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your Dear Mother Helen. She will be missed by all her knew her. sincerely Jacquie Davis
