    Our deepest sympathy to you all. Helen was our mother’s cousin by her marriage to Leroy Abbott. I remember them coming to the Laderman reunions for many years. I recognized her face in the picture in the News-Messenger immediately. I believe Helen had an amazing life. She loved you all and I am sure you love her. Our prayers are with you.
