I feel very sad about Helen. She was in homeroom with me in 7th grade at Black Jr. High. That was the first time I met her. I think she was rather sad because Ellen was not in the same homeroom with her. I always thought she had a beautiful smile and I remember seeing the two of them walking together and holding hands. I had the pleasure of working with their mother at one time at a toy store during one summer. Also knowing and working with Sharon Clifton, their other sister. They were such a sweet family. Helen has a special place in my heart and I still remember her beautiful smile.I So sorry for your loss. Ellen. I will always remember you and Helen together.
