Although I hadn't seen Helen for some time, we had been very open and close over coffee catch ups in the past. She was lovely. I'll never forget her. May she rest in the peace she deserves.

Helen was a good friend to my mum, Marion Brace. When my mum had to go into a home MetLife Karori formally sprott House. Helen was the first person to come over and help me to sort out my mums personal clothes and help me to set up her room in Karori. We are both very sad to hear what has happened to such a beautiful person. God bless Helen.

I hadn´t known Helen for very long, but loved our chats on her doorstep. She was warm, dignified, loved wearing bright colours, her garden and her family. She seemed to me to be a loyal friend and was highly articulate and interested in the goings-on of her community. Her beautiful smile and bright eyes were always a lovely greeting. My very sincere condolences to her family and friends.
