"Helen"
333 Laurel Road, Sharon Hill
Helen likes weekends, The Broomall, the shore and concerts. She dislikes coming in early on weekends, gym class and Monday mornings. July 2, 1972 and Graduation Day are what she will always remember. After graduation she plans to work.
Helen M. Onofrio

She loved to travel and particularly enjoyed her vacations on a catamaran in the British Virgin Isles. Many happy times were spent at her home on the bay in Sea Isle City and at the Sea Isle Yacht Club. She was welcoming to all she met, and her door was open to both friends and strangers alike.

I'm so thankful to have been given the opportunity to spend a few moments with Helen at our 40th & 50th reunions, and so very thankful for her VERY GOOD FRIENDS Kathy & Debbie for bringing Helen to our 50th, just two short months ago.
It makes me smile to think of how nice it was to see Helen, and how beautiful she looked from the top of her head down to her cute little boots, a beautiful person inside and out!
I consider it a privilage to have had the opportunity to know Helen, even if just for a short time.
Rest in Peace Helen <3
