I remember Mrs. Brooks and Mr. Brooks so well. Sylvia and I went to school together and have been friends since we were children. I remember I had Mrs. Brooks re-sew a zipper in a project I had to do for Home Ec. I told the teacher that I did it. Mrs. Brooks never got over that and every time she saw me she would tell me that I should not have done that. Back then we did not have a sewing machine and Mrs. Brooks was the only one I knew who could do the job. Loads of memories of my childhood took place in the Brooks home. Sylvie and I would play together as kids. I will always remember how she would laugh when something was funny and I remember how smart she was. I remember she would put white margarine on bread and I would never eat it. I never saw margarine like that in my life. I never knew she was a veteran, wow.
We just saw her Obituary today. Gordie and I are sorry for your loss, Cecilia, Joan, Rowan and Aaron and Sylvia.

We are so sorry to hear about the passing of Helen. My family and I are sending condolences to all her family, friends and grandchildren. Helen was a very interesting person who spoke very little words that had a lot to say when she did say something I was lucky enough to been given a gift of one of her beautiful quilts believe me they are so beautiful and she was so proud of doing them, and if you were lucky to get one, you should cherish it with all your heart
I found this beautiful poem, and I think it’s appropriate for this particular woman
Our deepest sympathy
To send our deepest sympathy
Just doesn’t seem like enough
We know how your grief must burden you
Oh, how this time must be so tough and rough
But try to believe in your heart of hearts
That your pain won’t last forever
That sadness, will lighten a little each day
And you’ll eventually feeling much better
When that day comes your memories
Will focus on the good not the bad
Instead of feeling burdened by tears
You will cherish the happy moments you had

I’m so honoured to have known Helen and worked with her at the Nurses residence on Waterloo Street back in the late seventies! We had many conversations during our working days but she never mentioned she was a World War II survivor and served in the Canadian Army. I had so much respect for her and now even more so knowing this! I would of loved to tell her thank you for your dedication and service in person.
Rest easy Helen,I’ll always carry your sweet memory within my heart!
