HELEN LAU RUNNING 1945-2014

Helen was an observant and intuitive presence — a grounding force in times of chaos, known for her calm in emergencies and her unwavering support of the underdog. She uplifted the shy, the overlooked, and the brilliant alike — forming friendships with everyone from neighborhood children, Dine' Elders, artists and astrophysicists. Helen brought people together across worlds, championing creativity, kindness, and curiosity wherever she went. She remains a force in the true Spirit of championing the creative fires for generations to come.
