I was saddened to hear about the passing of Mrs. Hellenga. She was a wonderful person who always supported the school and the community. I was fortunate to have visited with her a few times since I moved back to Decatur. In each visit with her and with Mr. Hellenga, I was always welcomed into their home and treated with kindness. Both Mr. and Mrs. Hellenga had the gift of making you feel special. At the conclusion of each visit, I really felt that they listened to me and they only wanted the best for me and my family. Decatur was fortunate to have had people like Mr. and Mrs. Hellenga live in the community. Patrick Creagan
