Helen Eileen Bell ne Kastes was born in Alberta and was raised in Winnipeg Manitoba. In 1955 she moved to Victoria and was left to raise 3 young girls by herself.
Mom always said that if it weren’t for the unfailing love that she had for her girls she would have “given up” Love is what drove her, at times working 3 jobs, mom never failed to provide a home for us with all the creature comforts.
In her Legacy mom leaves, 6 grandchildren their spouses and partners, and 2 greatgrandchildren, both of her greatgrandchildren mom was able to hold and get to know them.
Helen also leaves nephews and their families in Winnipeg, although farther away they constantly kept in touch with phone calls and cards.
