Helen was born in Port Arthur, ON on July 3, 1915 to John and Bessie Baxter. After working at Marshall-Wells, she married Jack Smith and moved to Winnipeg where she lived for the rest of her life.

We have really missed Aunt Helen. She would send us care packages each year and we got to visit with her in 1992 when we came down from Alaska. She was a jewel. - Posted by: Tammy Illguth (Grand Niece) on: Jul 26, 2012
