They also kept approximately twenty children from the neighborhood for up to several months and at times as long as a year...In 1958, Mabel 'Mama' Heller was recognized by the Lancaster Children's Bureau of Lancaster County for her involvement with the Children's Bureau in the raising of forty children at the Heller farm in Narvon Pennsylvania."
