Helene they say you never know the impact you have on a person's life until you leave, with you this is true. You had my girls both in your class over the years and one was easy and one not so. You took her under your wings and helped us thru the process which was hard with my mum also being in ICU at the time but you let our tears flow every morning and I left her with you to spend the day at the hospital. It took a while but we got there. For that I will be forever thank you for- the caring loving nature that you gave and total understanding for the hard decision to carry on with routine while our lives where a mess outside of school. Helene no one will replace you as you are a one in a million, and for that you always will have a special place in mine and my girls hearts. My love to Matt, Sarah and of course Mo
