Dear
Friends and Schoolmates,
We have sad news
this Monday morning. Former Newport
News High School English teacher
Helen Hardy
Shelton passed away at the Gardens at Warwick Forest in Newport News on
Saturday, March 19,
2011 at the age of 93.
From
Wilma Salmon Robinson
(Warwick HS - '51) of
VA - 03/20/11, 2:26 PM - "Passing of
Helen Shelton, teacher at NNHS":
Dear Friends and
Classmates of NNHS: It is with sadness that I let you know of the death March 19 of Mrs. Helen Shelton, English teacher at NNHS for many years. Her son tells me her obituary will be in the Monday morning Newport News and Richmond papers. The brief information I have now is that the graveside service will be at the Peninsula Memorial Cemetery at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday morning. She was 93 years old. I hope most of the e-mail addresses listed are current, at least so you can let anyone know about it that you think might be interested. I plan to attend on Tuesday. Much love to you, Wilma Robinson |
Thank you so much for relaying
this sad news, Wilma. Please accept my deepest condolences on the loss of your
friend.

For All the Saints
- Lyrics by William W. How
(1823-1897), 1864
Music (Sine Nomine) by Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958), 1906
For all the saints
who from their labors rest,
Who thee by faith
before the world confessed.
Thy name, O Jesus,
be forever blest.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
Thou wast their Rock,
their Fortress and their Might;
Thou, Lord, their captain
in the well-fought fight;
Thou, in the darkness drear,
their one true light.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
O may Thy soldiers,
faithful, true, and bold,
Fight as the saints
who nobly fought of old,
And win with them
the victor's crown of gold.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
And when the strife is fierce,
the warfare long,
Steals on the ear
the distant triumph song,
And hearts are brave again,
and arms are strong.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
From earth's wide bounds,
from ocean's farthest coast,
Thro' gates of pearl
streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father,
Son, and Holy Ghost,
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
