Like only a few others...
Like only a few others, Helen was seemingly always calm. A child would scream in church and others would turn their heads and stare angrily hoping the parent would take the child out to the hallway. Helen would just smile at the parents and slide over to help a self-conscious mom or dad. When a member of the church was diagnosed with AIDS, several congregation members began to avoid him and spoke ill of him. Helen and her husband decided to sit with him. When Helen's husband had a stroke and needed help with almost everything, Helen was there to care for him with no complaints.
