Kathryn Burnham wrote a sympathy message

“Hi, you don’t know me, but Helen lived next to my family and I on Mckinley Ave in Steger for a few years before she moved. I remember her always sitting on her swing in the garage. I would often go and sit with her. When I had my son, she was the first neighbor to meet him. We would all swing together. She was so sweet and I always enjoyed talking to her. When she moved, neighbors came and went. It was never the same without her right next door.”

Kathryn Burnham wrote a sympathy message

“(Continued from last message) Over the years we would send letters back and forth, with pictures of my family and kids. This past Christmas I sent her a Christmas card. I was very sad when it came back. I found Helen’s obituary and it made me sad that I was not able to show my respects. She was an incredible woman and I am so sad that she is gone.-Katie Burnham”
