I've had "What a singing there will be when I get home!" in my head all week.

And I'll probably hear Helen's voice in my head for the rest of my life -- not to mention that her music lives on in her CDs and in the singers who learned songs from her.

What we've once held close in our hearts is never gone, but Helen's presence will definitely be missed.

Our thoughts are with Rikki and Milan -- and with you, Kathy -- as well as with other friends who knew her better than we did.
