Your Mother was the most beautiful person and I'm very lucky to have known her. Take care and come home safe.

My heartfelt condolences to Lisa and family. Your mom was the best neighbour for near 50 years. She took great care of her lawn, shrubs and flowers. Her windows and walls cleaned regularly. Snow clearing was an obsession, completed at 2am while others slept. She was a kind and sweet lady. She loved to talk about the accomplishments of her granddaughters; and always looked forward to visits from family and friends. May your memories of Helen be a blessing. Kind regards.

Helen was a beautiful person inside and out. I will miss our little visits but will hold them close to my heart.

I will always remember Lisa's Mom as an incredible baker and cook in general. Carl and Lisa had moved to Okotoks and it was their 1st Christmas here. We were all waiting patiently for them to arrive from Brandon. Finally the car pulled up, we all ran outside to greet them, the trunk of the car opened and it was full, but not with presents, (they were in the back seat) but, with food. There were so many Christmas treats, squares, cookies, bars etc. Then there was also all the finger foods 😋. Mrs. Ramsey definately knew her way around the kitchen and we didn't hesitate to enjoy some of everything. RIP Mrs. Ramsey, and we will all look out for your beautiful daughter and her family ❤️
