SAEDA, HELENE HARUKO Our loving sister, aunt and friend, Helene Haruko Saeda, peacefully departed this life on November 29, 2014. She was a beautiful lady, but it was her beauty within that so many remember. She was generous, caring and compassionate. Numerous charities were beneficiaries of her kindness.
