Miss Millie was always a joy to see at the Waffle House. She and my husband teased each other. She was very sharp. We missed her when she retired. I know you will all miss her a lot and our thoughts and prayers are with you. May God hold you in his arms during this sad time. I know he is holding Miss Millie!

I am so sorry for the loss of your Mother. I knew her many years ago and had the pleasure of seeing her again at the Waffle House. She had such a great spirit and always made you laugh. She was truly one of a kind and will be greatly missed. May God be with you and your family.
