I would just like to say I cannot comprehend it has been 8 years now. My heart will forever ache Helena was so precious we did performing arts together at Robert Sutton! She helped me a lot I was struggling myself I was a new girl at the time and she was pretty much my only friend we became very very close! <3 I always think about Helena! And I always alwyas miss her every single day! Her smile and laughter is unforgettable she was so beautiful inside and out! X
I met Helena last year and we immeadiately clicked. She was bright, bubbling, beautiful and had a wicked sense of humour. She always knew what to say whatever the situation even if that was to ask for a selfie when she wanted one. I will never forget her gorgeous smile and equally beautiful personality. Helena will be remembered and missed for being a wonderful girl who loved to smile. Rest in peace, Lay. xx
Jay, we are so glad you had the time to meet and bond with Helena in the way you did. It's clear you were really great friends - thank you so much. Glen and Sharron xxx
I met Helena through my son. From the first time I met her I felt as if I had known her for ages. She was an absolute delight to have around. She lit up everywhere around her, a truly lovely person. I grew very fond of her very quickly. A true angel has left us but there is a special place set aside for Helena within my heart. May her memory live on forever.
Debbie, it's so good of you to share those wonderful feelings you have for Helena. Sharron and I are proud for her to have known you xxxxxx
I went to primary school with Helena. We had so many memories together in school. I remember when she came to visit me when I broke my leg. She was a bright and bubbly girl who will be dearly missed. May she rest in peace

Well it has made me reline that one minute a friend there then u fall out and there gone, there are many thing I like to say to her but am just remembering the good times. Your birthday so much fun at school I got u a cake and a candle but couldn't light it then wing wah goodbye Helena u are beautiful.
Chloe, it is very good of you to write this, recognising the good and the bad times but most definitely focussing on the good times. We thank you so much for your kind words xxxx
We remember Helena as a beautiful girl who grew into the most wonderful young lady. We thank you both for allowing us to share a small part of Helena's life. To watch her grow and blossom. No more words now, just love, thoughts and memories. God Bless xxxx
Andy and Crystal......thank you so much....it was an honour for Helena to have known you both and your family xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
As Helena's form tutor for 5 years, I got to see her grow up into such a beautiful, intelligent, kind young lady. It was an absolute pleasure to have known her and I am so sorry that she is no longer with you. She was such a special part of our form and I know the other kids are as heart broken as I am.
May she rest in peace and I hope you find some comfort from how loved she is by so many.

Nicole....such lovely words....I know she loved all of the Robert Sutton teachers and her school friends very much...thank you for being a part of her short, but beautiful life xxxxxx
Sharron & Glen
It has taken me over a week to be able to write you a message of condolence, as my mind has been quite literally numb with shock and disbelief. I can't believe that the girl I remember as a friendly young lady, with a ready smile has been snatched from you. As her past teacher I will always remember Helena as hard working and conscientious with her work. As the mother of one her oldest school friends, from the Foundation class at St Modwen's, I will always remember how friendly she was, and thoughts of the Birthday Party you had at Swad Ski Centre have been going through my mind.
I can't begin to offer you any words of comfort, but know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers.
With my most sincerest condolences.
Angie Burrows
Thank you Angie....We share your feelings entirely....we still think we are going to wake up from this dream one day...thank you for your kind thoughts xxxx
Sharron & Glen,
How shocked & saddened to realise it was such a beautiful girl inside & out who had gone. I remember Helena from junior school always smiling & saying hello whenever I saw her. She had grown into the prettiest girl & other than sending you my heartfelt condolences I am at a loss as to what to say that may give you some comfort. I will be thinking of you over the next few days.
With love
Jane, Rosie & Lizzie Dale

Jane your recollections and very kind words mean so much to Sharron and I. Thank you so much for sharing them xxxxx.
Helena when I red that it was you I was in shock, I couldn't and still can't believe your gone, I can remember the fun moments we had and the memories we shared when we were little. How much you grew up and blossomed into a young lady, one that made your mum and dad extremely proud and all others that new you including me. Those memories will live on forever.
Glen and sharon I am so sorry for your lose, there isn't really anything I can say that will amount to the type of pain your going through. My love and thoughts are with you always.
Much love always
Jade. xx
Rest in peace Helena xx
Jade it is so heart warming to hear those precious memories as you recall them so beautifully. Sharron and I feel very comforted by your words. xxx
You certainly blossomed into a beautiful young lady Helena - one which, I am sure, made your parents so very proud.
My love and thoughts are with you both Sharron & Glen.
Rest in Peace Helena

Thank you so much Rachel xxxx
Words cannot express our heartbreak and sorrow. You will live on in our memories, memories full of love, fun and laughter. Memories of a gorgeous, beautiful, lovely girl. Memories of you Helena that we will cherish forever. Rest in Peace. Lisa, Gerard and Max. xxx
Beautiful words. Sharron and I are so honoured that you were a part of Helena's life. x
Those we love don't go away
they walk beside us every day
unseen, unheard
but always near
still loved
still missed and very dear.
Sharron and I thank you for that lovely verse. x
As an old school colleague of Glen, I was deeply shocked and saddened when this news came to my attention. I'm not sure anything I say could make a difference. I have found the value of family and friends at a time like this.They helped me get through hard days when I lost someone close. I know friends and family will be there for you if you need them. Even a slight distraction can just take your mind off the sadness, and it isn't a betrayal to forget for a few seconds so you can just catch your breath.
May I offer my sincerest condolences and just sign off by saying what a beautiful daughter with a wonderful smile you had. It looked like it could light up a room and make all who saw it smile too. I envy the angels that they still get to see it and the world does not.
Take Care
Jonathan
Jonathan, our heart felt thanks for sharing your kind words and thoughts. Let me extend our sincere welcome for you to attend Helena's special day. x
Just wanted to say thank you for inviting me to attend in the above message. If I hadn't been out of Burton that week I would have liked to pay my respects in person. I hope the day gave you a little comfort. Reading the above messages, from people in all areas of Helena's life, you wouldn't have to know her to see how much she was loved by so many. Kind wishes Jonathan
