Helen McLoraine passed away

:cry: :cry: :cry:

I'd heard this from someone at nationals, but waited until I could find a link to post the information. Helen McLoraine is best known to skating fans for being Scott Hamilton's financial sponsor for his Olympic training, and great friend as well. I can't imagine how devastated he is. Since the death of both his parents I'm sure she became a second mother to him. :cry: :cry: :cry:

Here's a link to her obituary in the Denver Post.

Very sad. I'm sure the skating world in general is in mourning for her.

Thanks for the link. Ah, I know how much she did for Scott.

One life ends, another begins. Just heard the news that Scott Hamilton and his wife announced they will become parents. If it's a girl, wanna bet they name her Helen?
