Condolence From: Elvira Stegmueller
Condolence: I met Helen and Hendrik while volunteering at the NOTL library book sale in 2011. I had only lived in the area a few months. During our conversation I asked Helen if she knew of a non-fiction book club in NOTL. To my delight she introduced me to her book club in which I have experienced many years of reading pleasure and discussion. I was impressed with Helen's intelligence and dry sense of humour during the hours we shared every month while discussing our book selections. I shall miss her presence and offer my sincerest condolences to her family.

Condolence From: Nadine Levin
Condolence: Dear Hank, Sharon and Family, As Hank will remember, I worked with Helen at Environment Canada (before the department's current name change). Helen always had remarkable insights. She, Sherry Watson and I used to have coffee, lunch etc, discuss policy and laugh over the foibles of this person and that, and this and that policy endeavour. I really enjoyed the times spent at Helen and Hank's place for barbecues and eating Chinese food at the Mandarin on Oglivie Road in Ottawa's east end. At one point, Hank, Sharon and their Ottawa translation firm did some work for me -- super results. Wonderful times socially, and happy memories of work that was still fun. I lost touch once Helen and Hank moved away. My condolences. My thoughts are with you at this time. Yours sincerely, Nadine

God Bless you. Love, Michelle Nardell
