Aunt Mildred was a great example for all of us. She built a successful business in the 1960's when it was really rare for a woman to do so. And she did so while taking great care of the whole family. Her leadership and the depth of her caring were inspiring. We will miss her strength.

So sorry to hear about Ms. Milly's passing; she was a beautiful woman and very kind caring soul. I always remember her coming around to my parents, Joe and Hazel Lucas' home and talking. She was always so dressed up and looking beautiful whenever I saw her. I know that she's up in Heaven rejoicing with our Lord. Keeping you and your family in my prayers.
