Helen can only be described by me as a true friend, I can truly say that I was privileged to have known her all these years. She taught me so much and inspired me, and her creativity astounded me. We had some great times, some not so great times, but no matter, we were always there for each other, me winding her up about the loveliness of garlic, her venting her frustrations at me, right through to the end. I could always sense the raising of the disapproving eyebrow of which she was the master! She was an inspiration to so many people at so many levels, especially in the later years when it would have been just too easy to give up to her awful illness. She carried on building the wonderful legacy with George at the Mill and she just carried on, regardless of the daily challenges she faced, just look at the felt and wool sheep, birds and highland cattle she created in the last months, outstanding. As others have said, there’s no doubt George has her creativity gene. So Nell, thank you for sharing your wonderful life with me, for being a true friend, I will miss you.............Rob
