My sincere condolences to the family of Helen J.Bryant. I had the privilege to work with Helen at Westinghouse. My house burned and I lost all of children belongings and Helen came up my rescue. She was a beautiful Christian lady with a beautiful smile. I will always remember Helen and will keep the family in my prayers. May God bless you.
May the Lord look over the family because Mother Bryant was a true woman of God who sought to be an example to others. I thank God for her in the lives of my family and all that she blessed us with. There is sorrow for those left behind but joy in knowing that she is at rest with our Lors and Savior, Jesus Christ.
