She worked in the Attorney General’s office for the Commonwealth of Virginia prior to beginning her medical career as an accomplished O.R. Nurse. She enjoyed spending time with family and friends at her condo in Orange Beach, Alabama. Helen had a lifelong passion for playing piano and singing. She was also an avid sports fan and enjoyed watching Tennessee Titans Football and Nashville Predators Hockey. She also enjoyed loving on her beloved Lakeland Terrier, “Trouble.” Most of all Helen cherished spending time with her family. She was David’s biggest supporter in his professional life and his many activities related to Virginia Military Institute. Family was her top priority especially her children and grandchildren as she treasured watching them at athletic events and church choir performances.
