DIGIACOMO, Helen Elizabeth (Bastien) - October 17, 1934 - July 5, 2021 - Helen passed peacefully at home on July 5, 2021 after a long illness.
Helen is survived by siblings Robert and Janet, children Carla, Marla, Andrew, Todd and Francine and her many grandchildren and one great grandchild.
It is hard to imagine an infant named Helen; it is such a mature name.
But in the case of our Mother, Helen Elizabeth Bastien, it was an apt name. Thrust at an early age into the role of mothering her siblings, whom she adored and lovingly cared for, never complaining.
