Christina Agnes Helm

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Christina Agnes (Grant) Helm. Christina passed away peacefully at her home on June 22, 2015 surrounded by her loving family.
Born in Baie Verte NB, she was a daughter of the late Robert and Jean (Munro) Grant.
Christina's priorities were family, friends, and community organizations. She was a member of the Immanuel United Church, Amherst, and a member of the Ladies Barbershop Chorus, "Border Belles". She looked forward to trips to the camp in Tidnish with family, relaxing outdoors and watching the river. She would share her great sense of humour with friends at their many activities and card games. She volunteered for many years with the VON Day Program at Havelock Terrace, allowing caregivers a much needed rest.
She will be sadly missed by daughter Deborah (Dale) Gray, Amherst; grandchildren Jakeb and Kassidy Gray; brother Jimmy Grant, West Amherst as well as Jimmy's children Robbie & Lynn, plus many nieces and nephews.
She was predeceased by her husband Donald in 2008 and son William "Billy" in 1977.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Furlong~Jones Funeral Home, 70 Church St., Amherst, NS (902-667-8777) where visiting hours will take place on Thursday from 2 to 4 and 6-8 pm. Christina's funeral service will be held at the Furlong~Jones Funeral Home, Friday June 26, 2015 at 1 pm, Rev. Jean Ward officiating. Burial will follow in the Amherst Cemetery.
Donations in memory of Christina may be made to the Cumberland Palliative Care, the VON, or charity of your choice.
