Our Dear Miss Helen, Sweet, always shared her disarming smile, and a gentle word for everyone she met. Helen was with us, in our office, for seventeen years. In those 17 years, I never saw her without her warm, gentle smile and soft spirit to all who she met. Helen somehow remembered each client’s name and greeted them with respect and warmth. Personally, she called Guy Sperduto and I her "boys". She loved her daughter and her granddaughter. Even those times when she was tired and in some pain, she never lost her smile. Thank you Helen for being a part of our team and our lives. Your patience and kind words were worth more than gold. You were an inspiration for many of us in the office and our clients will miss you and ask where their Helen is. (we all know where you really are. Beside Brady, whom you loved and sought to be with ~ you mentioned that to us) We love you Helen and our lives were better because of your gentle spirit, kind words and disarming smile. Love, Joe and Suzie Lania
