We are shocked and saddened to announce the sudden passing of Helen Walihura (Nee Yantsis) on Monday, July 29th, 2024 in her 59th year. Helen was a beautiful soul that was loved and respected by everyone she met, always giving 150% to whatever endeavour she pursued. Helen’s pride was in her dedication to her family, work, and community. Helen will be missed by her devoted husband Terry, and her son & “apple of her eye” William. Daughter of Angela & the late Angelo Yantsis, sister to the “smotherer” Cathy (Stevie), sister-in-law to John (Mary) and Ann. She will be missed by several cherished cousins, numerous friends, and City of Burlington colleagues.
