Helen and my grandparents (George and Ida Bonjour) were friends when I was a little boy in the 1960s. My grandparents were also immigrants from the French part of Switzerland so I am assuming that was the connection between the families. My grandfather passed away in 1966 and my grandmother in 1971 but I still remember Helen coming to Olin, Iowa to visit my grandparents and my parents taking my grandmother to visit Helen in Iowa City. Prayers for peace and comfort to Helen's family.
Best regards,
