"Millie was always warm and friendly. I swear, she never knew a stranger. Always ready with a hug and a smile. We treasure her life. We treasure the memories. Psalm 116:15 says, "Precious in the sight of Jehovah is the death of his saints." Millie you are a saint in the sight of our Lord. "
"Bob, Ann & Pat, We want you to know how special Millie was to our family. She always had a smile and a kind word to say when ever we were there to visit. I know that when she and Bob took Stehanie in to live when she was at college it gave Randy and I peace of mind knowing that she was with two very special people who loved and took care of her like she was one of their very own. She will be greatly missed and will still be loved by our family."
