So sorry to hear of your loss. Praying for you.

I am so sorry. Helena was a caregiver for my daughter Hannah Huneycutt at the Coltrane Center.
Sending my condolences to you all.
Stan and Julia,
My heart is shattered in a million pieces. Helena was a genuine, kind hearted, and nothing but a precious soul. Helena has been one of my closest friends since kindergarten, through thick and thin. No matter what life handed us we knew we always had each other. Not a week went by without a text or a phone call, whether it was to request prayer for one another, to talk about what was new in our life, or just simply remind one another that we were so thankful that God blessed us with our special friendship. Not a single conversation, or visit ended without saying I Love You. I cannot imagine the pain you both are feeling. I know that only the Good Lord above can heal your broken spirits. As bad as it hurts, I can rest assure knowing without a single doubt that Helena is the most beautiful Angel in heaven. Helena loved Jesus with all of her heart, and she is happier now than she ever was on earth. We’re all one day closer to meeting our creator, now I have one more reason to look forward to being reunited with my guardian angel. Goodbye is forever, so for now I’ll see you later. May you rest in peace, until we meet again, fly high Helena, I’m going to miss you.
Love you,
Whitney G. Caudle
Our thoughts and prayers are with you Stan & Julia and the entire family. Getting to know your family at the Marketplace has been a blessing and we are very shocked and sad to hear of Helena's passing - she was always such a friendly sweet person any time that you saw her.
Helena, where do you begin.....she was one of a kind for sure. Over the years that I have known her, we have spent so much time just talking about any and every thing. She loved all of her family dearly and had so many memories of her work with Food Lion over the years and the memories she shared with the people she supported. She had a kind heart and I'm sure she never met a stranger. She is someone who you will never forget. I still can't believe she is no longer with us here on Earth, but she will be waiting for us to meet her in Heaven one day, so this is just a temporary loss. The last time she was talking with me at the shop, for what ever reason this particular subject came up and she wanted me to make sure to mention her love of Ellie her Elephant aka her riding companion over the years. She really loved that Elephant and if you ever knew her you know exactly what I am talking about. Ellie always had on her outfit and sunglasses and was ready to go on their next adventure. Ellie met a lot of people over the years as well. Always remember the happy times you shared with Helena and cherish them. I think Helena would not want us to be sad for loosing her here, but instead be happy for what she has gained now. Stan & Julia, we are very sorry for your loss and can't imagine how you must be feeling right now. God is always with us and he will give you the strength you need to continue on, even when it seems like all your strength is gone. We will continue to keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.
Melinda, Jerrett & Pyper Mabry
