Dear Family.
Memories of Mildred go back to our school years, then life took
us in different directions but during those years we shared many good laughs together. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her. I called her a few weeks back and we had a great talk visa phone. May the Lord comfort each of her family members especially her sweet little mother.
Mildred was a great lady. Hold on the all of the Precious Memories. And some day there will be a Glad Reunion Day.
Love to all, Carolyn and Ray Godfrey

We are so sorry to learn of Mildred's passing. She was our housekeeper for nearly twenty years. She was such a big help to us when Katy couldn't keep up the house due to rheumatoid arthritis while both of us still worked. Mildred was such a sweet lady, and a very hard worker. God bless her. We miss her so much.

I will miss Mildred's smiling face as she has been a great friend to me for many years. I first met Mildred in the 70's when she knocked on my door selling Avon products, We became friends and I will miss her very much.
My condolences to the family, she loved you greatly and i know you will miss her but remember she is in a better place than we are now.
