So sorry to hear this I Sure Loved Miss Booney.
Mrs Boone was a great loving Neighbor. She became a Grandmother figure you my younger brothers that knew where they could sneak off to and get there fill of cookies and her love. We enjoyed her conversations as she walked the block and talked to everyone that was outside. She was loved so much by so many people. We all would watch out for the white cavalier and then the blue Chevy speeding down the road. She had a bit of a lead foot. much love to her Family and prayers for their comfort. She is in a happy place now with Jay who’s been waiting for her.
Hellen befriended me when my kids were young after we moved back home to alamo. I was a single mom raising my 4 children and she hired me to clean her house. After awhile we became good friends. She would take us arrowhead hunting up at box canyon and hells half acre. She found the petrocliffs at box canyon where my dad had scratched his name and birthdate and showed it to us. One time we raced each other around Yoppsville in our cars too. But one of the fondest memories I have most is one christmas she made me and the kids each denim blankets with pockets and in each pocket there was money. I have so many more memories of her that I could go on and on. She was always there for us no matter what people told her. She called me her adopted daughter suzanneee and I called her mom. She had a heart as big as this planet, a little crazy, and a lot of love to give. She loved life. RIP Hellen. We will love and remember you always.
To be honest I only knew her name as *the cookie lady* as a kid I remember me and my brother Brandyn always riding our bikes or playing outside and we always stopped at her house and she would always have cookies in her cookie jar for us kids, I truly believe she loved feeding us those cookies as much as we loved eating them. Thank you so much for your kindness! You were one amazing lady! Rip Mrs. Boone aka the best cookie lady ever.
