Words cannot express how sorry I was to hear about your mom. It's been a long, long time since I've seen your mom and you guys. I can see her in my mind. Julie and I are sitting at the breakfast bar and your mom is on the other side dishing out pancakes with the biggest smile on her face. Her smiles were so big that her eyes would disappear. I can still hear the way she would say some words like tour, wash and acme(acne) and it makes me smile. I remember how mad she would get when Julie and I would dye the dog according to the holiday. Such great memories. I will hold them all dear to my heart. What a wonderful mom, friend and neighbor she was. We all loved her dearly. My thoughts and prayers are with each one of you. Love Lori Lee

Gary (and family): When my mom, who's still in Olympia, shared the news about your mom, I felt I had to get in touch. Although it's been some 30 years since I last saw your mother (and almost as long since I've seen you), I'll always be grateful to her for raising a funny, creative, and inspiring son who was one of my very best friends. Having lost a parent myself, I know how you all must miss her. You are in my thoughts, Betsy

My thoughts have been with you throughout the winter, and especially now, knowing the ordeal that you all have been going through. Helen was such a good neighbor for all these years and she was the first one Marvin and I met after we moved down to the valley. You can take comfort in knowing that she is finally at peace.

Helen always appeared to love life and experience all that she could in every setting. She was a wonderful neighbor and always kept watch over things for us. It was amazing to see Helen expand her horizons and reinvent herself over time. When we were kids I was amazed at what an incredible homemaker she was, and for the record, my garage floor will never be that clean! Later, she decided that she wanted to be out in the business world, so she went to work. In retirement she loved to travel with Dick see new and interesting places and things. Whenever I made a trip home she always come over to say "hi" and catch up. We always had a laugh and solved (or tried to) a couple of world problems. Helen was one of a kind. Hold your memories close. Since my father Marvin Davis was also a very sociable person, I have visions of the two of them orchestrating a block party in heaven.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

To Julie/family and Howse boys/Family....Julie and I have been friends for 15 years. During that time, my family had the pleasure of meeting both your mom and dad. We are sorry for her suffering but are so glad you could all be with her during the last few months. I will always remember her laugh and sporty hairdo!! She always was fun to hang out with at the air race parties and kept us all in line. Our best wishes for peace are with you all.

Dave, Patty, Melissa & Mathew,
I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you. I know that it has been a difficult time for the last few months. I think the only time that I met Helen was the weekend that we spent with you guys down at Ocean Park in Long Beach. It was a fun time and I will always remember your Mom as a real fun and kind person.
Take care & you are in my prayers.

To Gary, Larry, David, andJulie, as well as Dick, Maggie, Patty, and Bob, plus the grandchildren, Matthew, Melissa, Cooper, Travis, Bailey, and Morgan:
I just want you to know I always thought of your mother as my 2nd mom. I remember when I was pucky sick pregnant with one of my kids she came over and cleaned my whole house for me. I will never forget how much she loved to laugh, how she would exclaim "OH, God!!" when she was shocked or surprised about something, and how she loved to garden, can, play cards, and mother. She was truly incredible. She was a wonderful model for the kind of mother I wanted to be...(still trying!) Although we will all miss her presence in our lives, her real present to us are all the memories and the influence she's had on all of us.
And to the "Howse kids" in particular: I regret I have not kept in better touch, and resolve to do better in the future. Growin g up with you right across the street was such a treat. We used to watch David practice dancing in his bedroom, played with Gary, Larry, and Julie, and enjoyed many barn sleepovers and adventures. You are like my 2nd family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Love, Karli

We became to know Helen as family since 1969. She loved to talk and laugh and had a good since of humor - even through her crisis. To know her was to love her. She'll be sorely missed by her numerous friends.

We are so glad that we had an opportunity to know Helen these past years. She was always a ray of sunshine whenever she was around, and we are grateful that she and Dick could share their days and lives together in these senior years. She's gone but not forgotten.

Much sympathy to all of you: Dick, David, Gary, Julie, Larry, and the grandkids. Your mom was truly a ray of sunshine, lots of laughs and humor, and a sincere interest in all of our welfare. I feel blessed to have grown up across the street. What a treat to be a kid in a time when neighbors talk to one another and parents are parents to the neighborhood. Your mom was special. Continue to remember all the memories and laugh often as you live your lives. That's what she would want. All our love, comfort, and prayers to you to heal you through this time of transition.
