    Davis & Jimmy, Helen was a wonderful person. She and your Dad were great neighbors and we hated to see them move. Helen will be missed by many but know that she and your Dad are having a great reunion and she is no longer in pain. Love, Barbara

    Please know we have you in our thoughts and prayers. We were so sorry to learn of her death. May God go with each member of her family in the months ahead without her.

    To cousins Jim and David and family, words can't express our sorrow at the passing of our beloved Aunt Helen whom we loved and respected so much throughout our lifetime together. We are grateful we had the opportunity to hug her one last time and say our goodbyes and will keep her and all of you in our hearts and our prayers always.

    Sorry to hear of Helen's passing but now she is with Norm and God. She and Norm were our friends from Cursillo and provided us both with a grand role model. We wish the entire Baty family our sincerest sympathies.

    BATY,
