Abbie Gallagher wrote a sympathy message

“I had the pleasure of cleaning Helen's house for the last couple of years. She was always a client I looked forward to seeing. Her spunky sense of humor and love for the birds & flowers made it so easy for me to relate to her. She was a bright light in my life and I am so certain so many others felt the same. I will miss our long talks about the past and the life she built. Her stories are some of my favorites. I am very sorry for your loss, I will keep your family in my prayers Abbie Gallagher”
