A Lady We All Called Miz Helm

Miz Helm, also known as LaVerne Helm, was a special lady to Beverly, especially during her high school years.  Her husband, Jaye C. Helm was the superintendent of schools in Stephenville and actually hired Beverly's Dad when they moved to Stephenville.  As the years went by, Beverly started working at the local Hallmark store that was managed by Miz Helm.  Mr. Helm gave Beverly the nickname "Do What"!

They also had a close connection at Graham Street Church of Christ.  Over the years they shared many hours together.  Later in life, she moved to Austin to be closer to her children and we would go down and visit with her.  She enjoyed going to eat out and we both liked Salt Grass Steakhouse, so that's where we usually went.   She and Beverly always shared a Pat's ribeye and baked potato as we caught up on the affairs of our families and the Stephenville community.

She will be missed!

Miz Helm, as she was known as with affection, was a special lady.  She loved
God, her family, friends and playing bridge!

The good old days at The Mark on Belknap Street in Stephenville.

It was a private funeral with just family and a few close friends

She was buried at Erath Gardens next to her husband.

It was a special time to remember all the great memories from her 
family and friends.

Jimmy and Danny, discussing the state of the world!

Rest in Peace, Miz Helm.
