doesnt that say it all, that even on a condolences page this man will be called on the agenda's he worked toward prompting.

Angela, is this really a good idea? Many people do not have the tact required to post something that would be considered appropriate even if they disliked the man.

Oops! Nevermind, I see it's being monitored for remarks. Carry on then..LOL

Thank You Mr.Helms for all you did for us here in NC and abroad!

MAY you sleep well with all knowing what an extraordinary man you were.You were a man with backbone!

I will remember him as a man who believed in God and country. He loved his family , his state , and his country with his whole heart. A man who fought for what he believed to be best for this state and this country. He will be missed. May God's healing grace bring his family comfort at this time.

I'll always remember your skill at race-baiting. God bless.

I will pray for your family.

I hope that Mr Helms had a personal relationship with God. I pray that his family receives comfort for their loss.

Jesse was always a man that stood for what he believed in and he loved this State and this Country. He was a strong voice for conservitives and I am sure he is in a better place now cause there are not many liberals in heaven!!!

The pain of family members who loved this man is real, regardless of how hard he was for some of us to tolerate. To those family members, I extend my condolences and prayers.
