She was predeceased by her parents Clifford and Alice (Cawley) McGlade, sisters Irene Kearney, Anne McMunn and Judy Kelford; she will be remembered by brothers-in-law Blair McMunn and Bill Kelford. Helen spent the majority of her life helping others, from providing dignity and care to the residents of Ellenvale Acres Nursing Home to nurturing, caring and supporting many foster children. Her unshakable faith helped her through the past several months.
