Dear Hannelore, Marc and Annaliese,
It has been nearly 4 decades since we last saw you, but Tim and I still remember very fondly the time we spent as guests of your family in 1981 on our school soccer tour from England. The welcome we enjoyed all those years ago left an incredibly strong impression on us and so we are very sad to hear of your mother’s passing. We remember Helane as a profoundly warm and effervescent person and the hospitality she showed to us and the fun we had with all of you then holds a special place in our hearts. Our thoughts are very much with you all at this time.
Torquil Macneal (Australia) and Tim House (UK)

On behalf of the committee for the Sharon M. Pepper Wish Upon a Star Program at the M.M. Ewing Continuing Care Center, I just wanted to say how grateful we are to the family for choosing this program for donations in memory of Helane. She was often there at the front desk when we were about to head out with a resident to fulfill an off-site wish, or when we would have an on-site wish fulfillment, like a concert or some other type of performance, and she was always so enthusiastic and supportive. On a personal note, I always enjoyed seeing her there. She was so warm and welcoming to me and to my children, and it was obvious how much the residents and their family members loved chatting with her. She really set the tone for a loving, family-like environment and made the perfect first impression for people walking through the door. Her obituary is a beautiful tribute, and designating the wish program is a truly fitting legacy. Thank you!

Villa Helane
Da gibt's ein Platz heißt Villa Helane,
Halbweg auf den kleinen Berg,
Wo größe Fichten zum Himmel erreichen,
und Beereren entlang Blumenpfäder wachsen.
Da sitz Helane in bequemer Sessel,
mit Morgensonne auf ihre schöne Gesicht,
und da kommt Herr Gott, ihr zu willkommen.
Güt daß er shaut direkt in ihre Augen.

I worked and Thompson, Continuing Center for many years. My office was right across from the reception desk, where Helane worked. If I was having a bad day, I would go out, and talked to Helane. You couldn’t help, feeling better, when you saw her smile, and talked with her.
She was always telling us about her grandchildren, she was so proud of them. Always smiling, and welcoming, people into the facility. Reading her obituary, was wonderful. Speaking for myself, and probably, many others, that worked with her, I had no idea, what a rich life she lived.

I met Helane when my mom and dad were at the Continuing Care Center back in 1999. We got to be great friends. She was wonderful to talk with and made coming there much easier to handle. She must have been a wonderful mother, and I'm sure she will be greatly missed. These wonderful tributes to her are a testament to how much she meant to so many people. God be with you.

This amazing woman was most definitely treasured, not only by her fortunate children, but most certainly by a multitude of people, such as I, whose lives have been so meaningfully touched by Helane. Though I suspect I knew her for a much shorter time than many others, knowing her for even a relatively short period of time was a blessing to me. A bright light on this earth has been extinguished as a result of her passing, but I will always cherish the beautiful friendship we formed at E.E. Ewing Rehab Center and nurtured from a distance via e-mails and texts that meant so much to me. Rest in peace, Dear One.

I remember the first time Helane visited Socorro, NM to see her daughter, Hannelore and her family. Sepp was in kindergarten with my daughter and some of the parents were a buzz with the woman who was visiting that looked just like Hannelore. She was immediately loved of course. But it went well beyond that. Helane was truly interested in all of us who were a part of her daughter's life which made us feel like a part of the family. Helane's children, grandchildren, and even great grandchildren are a beautiful tribute to the woman who was an inspiration for the close bonds in this family. Our hearts are with you all.

Condolence's to Helane's family. She loved you all so much. She will always be in my heart. I think of her often. Walking into Ewing CCC has never been the same since she has been gone. Always greeting everyone with a smile. And never letting me leave without making sure I was okay or a hug if she thought I needed one. She was a very special, warm, wonderful and beautiful woman.

I can believe my old friend is gone. Even if she was in pain, she was always asking about your life. And only a few weeks ago, we discussed dinner at the country club. I look at her condo every time I walk by with the dog. So sorry to all of you. She will be missed.

I worked at the CCC for 7 years and nearly every day I was greeted in the lobby by Helane and her infectious smile and "Hi there sweetie!" I don't think there are enough wonderful things I can say about her. She had such a caring personality and it was apparent that she cared very much about the residents of the CCC. I am so saddened to hear about her passing. My sincere condolences and prayers are with her children, grandchildren and other family and friends. The world truly lost a beautiful person.

My heart aches. I’m in shock. Helane and I used to work together. She was always pleasant and had a smile a mile wide.
Helane, May you Rest In Peace. You will never be forgotten.

Our deepest condolences to you and your family and all the Koehler’s.
Your mother was a kind hearted soul. I enjoyed corresponding with her over the years. She was always positive and a joy to be around! I’m sure Helane is having a great time on her next adventure in heaven. Cheers to her fabulous life! Love Margaret, Emery and family

We shall always remember as the lady greeting us at the desk of Ewing with a cheerful smile and often a hug. We had known Helane years earlier when she was a hairdresser and lived in Fishers and were glad to see her again at Thompson. She was such a caring and compassionate lady who always brought a ray of sunshine into our lives while my mother was a resident in the nursing home.
A memory ... I took her some of my homemade sauerkraut and pork that we had talked about. She was really excited to try it and wrote me a nice letter that I believe I still have thanking me. May god bless your family and prayers are being said by old friends.
