Aunt Helen had a warm heart and open house. She would greet us with a cup of tea and a delicious, home baked scone….she was well read and enjoyed sharing her knowledge and expertise in a variety of subjects….We will miss her smiling face and rational approach to life. The family will forever cherish Family Gatherings, especially at Christmas Time where she made a special effort to make everyone feel welcome. Her relentless pursuit of the Willis McCorvey famiy tree will be appreciated and shared for generations to come.
Forever in our hearts
Forever in our minds
Forever in the books we read to our kids
Forever…….
With heavy hearts,

I always enjoyed visiting with Helen at Gwen and Randal’s family gatherings. She was a joy to be around and partake of her cheerful, positive attitude.
We remember many fond memories of our time together in Manila. Helen was a gracious lady. We have an artistic piece she made for Fannie Lou framed and on a bedroom wall.
So sorry for your loss,
Jim and Fannie Lou McNeill
