Rosalee Clark wrote a sympathy message

“Helen & I have been friends since Jr. High. We kept in touch & met monthly with 3 others who also went to school with us. We enjoyed our monthly lunches- and we were named HARP- Helen, Anita, Rosalee & Phyllis. Vickey joined us a little after the group formed. Helen went to lunch in Feb but in March she texted that she was not up to it. We have all been praying for her, hoping that her health would return. Helen knew she would not be with us much longer. Our deepest sympathy to family.”
