It's very sad to say goodbye to my darling Aunt Helen, although I'm relieved that she is no longer suffering. She was a gentle and caring lady, and I'll always treasure the happy times we had together, and the laughs we shared right up until the end. My deepest sympathies go out to the rest of our family, and her close circle of loving and kind friends. The support we have received from so many in these past few weeks has been tremendous, and I'd like to thank the staff at Whitehead Private Nursing Home for taking such good care of Helen over the past year and a half.
I'd also like to thank Kerry and the team at Mulhollands Funeral Directors in Carrickfergus for helping us to make arrangements. Helen is resting peacefully there now if anyone would like to drop in to say goodbye privately before the funeral service at 10am on Friday.
I'll see you again some day in the future Auntie Helen, and I've no doubt you'll have the kettle on and we can share a lovely cup of tea!

Helen although we lived on opposite sides of the world we had a beautiful connection. On the few occasions we met up we had so much fun together and you will be sadly missed by your close family, your Australian family and many friends. Rest in peace beautiful lady.
Our sincere condolences to Eric, Michael and Joseph.
