To Helen’s family you have my condolences for your deep loss. She had a long and fruitful life, and no doubt you still miss her. May this scripture bring comfort, Isaiah 66:13.

My condolences to the family as we mark the passing of dear Helen. I called her Aunt Helen as she was my father Jack Sirotniak's aunt. She took such good care of my dad after his mother Clare died at such a young age.
I have fond memories of spending time with Aunt Helen in Jersey City when I was a little girl. I remember going for long walks along the railroad tracks with her dog Lucky in the quiet of the early morning. I still recall a feeling of wonder and joy, finding sunflowers and green plants that grew in dirt along the rusty rails and concrete behind my Grandpa Steve's house.
I remember going up the stairs to the house on (I think) Seaview Ave, and looking down from the kitchen into the backyard with the beautiful garden.
As I got older, I loved talking to her about the past and when she was a little girl. She told me about her and Clare going back to Slovakia when they were young, and told me the name of their village and nearby city (Kučín and Košice, Slovakia).
I remember seeing her at my parent's 50th Anniversary party in NJ, and visiting her in the nursing home a year later. She was so filled with life!
I imagine dear Helen now reunited in heaven with her sister Clare, husband Art and all of our dear ones who have gone before.
Sending thoughts of love and prayers for strength to the family.

Helen’s family: I'm so sorry for your loss. I went through a similar situation and I was very helped by the hope that I found in the Bible in John 5:28, which says, "Do not amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out". I am sending you a link with more information on this hope.

Some Memories and Thank yous to Auntie M over the years
Thank you for:
- The 2 cent cokes from Uncle Andrew's store when I was eight or nine years old.
- The countless times running up the stairs on the side of 12 Seaview, bringing something from my mom to you and always getting a treat, but even more a BIG SMILE.
- Going with you to the Flower/Garden Show in NYC.
- Being there when mom died so unexpectedly and being my Second mom.
- Putting mom's two diamonds from her earrings into a "friendship" ring, which I gave to Mary J on my college graduation day and guiding me to the best decision of my life.
- Welcoming Mary and all our children with love and kindness over 50+ years.
- Being at the Mass for our Saint Vinny after his terminal bout with leukemia and sharing a beer (though only a swig) afterwards!
- Coming to our 50th anniversary party.
- The laughs and remembrances during our visits to see you at your other homes.
- Most of all, being a Pillar of our Faith.
Love Your Nephew Jack

My thoughts, prayers and heart are with you and your family right now. Though I can't be with you physically, I'm not feeling well nor is Charlie, in my mind, I'm standing right next to you and holding you.
Though our Moms have been "gone" from us for a long time, it doesn't hurt any less when their bodies leave this world. She is truly in God's hands now.
God Bless your Mom and all her extended family
Love
Pat
