Cabbage rolls and perogies and onions cooked in cream, Aunty Helen was a dream. Always happy to greet you with a love to story tell. All the smiles she gave us, in our sadness will be missed. Now only memories that will last, for they will always be there, just as she was for us. And don't let it be forgotten. For she truly lived life. - Posted by: Curt and Janine Tesarski and family (nephew) on: Aug 10, 2015

Our visits to Aunty Helen's home in Winnipeg were always fun with a cup of tea, a sampling of her delicious baking and of course laughter! Her love of live and energy always seemed to make everyone happy! I can still see her working alongside my mom and dad in their huge yard in the country. Rick has fond memories of meeting up with her for breakfast at a hotel on Pembina hwy She went there for the exercise and Rick for the food! Aunty Helen we miss you Charlotte Rick and family - Posted by: Charlotte and Rick Dykes (niece) on: Aug 07, 2015

My dear Helen, You are missed dearly by the Draper family. I was lucky to have you come and stay the winters and what fun that was together with you teaching me crib each evening at 4:00. The long walks in Colwood will be lonely without your company. Joyce, Jennifer, Victoria BC Mark and family Santa Barbara, Ca - Posted by: Joyce Draper (Sister) on: Jul 27, 2015

Linda, My condolences for the loss of your Mom. It has been a long time since we have been in touch but I do remember being at your parents house, in Winnipeg, when we worked together at the U of M. Also a lot of good "Coachmen" memories. Take care. - Posted by: Joyce Fieting () on: Jul 27, 2015
