30 some years ago, I created and taught an Ornithology Class at my high school, NFA. I got permission to take my class out via Project Oceanology. Helen was there, she was banding birds, talked to my class. It was wonderful. As a bonus there were dozens of migrating Ruby-throated Hummingbirds passing through. It was a wonderful day and meeting a wonderful woman was the best part.

Yes, I volunteered on Great Gull Island several years ago! She was a pleasure to meet. She will be missed.
