Our wonderful wife and mother, Heidi Helpern Keene left this earth on March 27, 2019. She is no longer in pain.
Born on May 10, 1948 in Boston MA to the late Maurice Helpern and his wife Jacqueline Rutherford Helpern who survives her. Heidi was an incredible woman. She was not only a great wife and mother but an outstanding nurse who gave her all for her patients. She injured her back helping a patient twenty years ago and has been in constant pain ever since. Through the pain, she always managed to smile and share her time and love with her husband of almost 50 years David Robert Keene who survives her. They were truly best friends and shared a love like no other.She leaves behind her son’s David Keene II (Maureen) and Marc Goodman. Her 6 grandchildren will miss her and carry her memory in their hearts. Her brother, Dr. Joseph Helpern of SC and her sisters Amy Fischman of SC and Holli Levy of MD are going to miss her beautiful smile and loving heart.
Services will take place at a later date in Mansfield, Ohio where she will be interred in the Mansfield Cemetery.

After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
