A delicious sense of humor, a real appreciation of the serious side of things and an earnest desire to achieve are among her characteristics.

Remember the parody on Rostand ' s Romancers ! And now that the four years have come to a close, we sincerely regret losing her. Hut Helen, with her quiet charm will never fade from our memories.
