I just learned of Millie's passing. I am so sorry. I have known her since I was 16 and will never ever forget any time that I have spent with her. I am sorry I missed the calling hours. She was like a grandmother to me. She lived a good life. It was her time to be with Arch.

Dear Roddy, Jerry and families,

Mildred was very dear to me and I will miss her greatly. She filled a void when my mother passed away and over the years we became quite close. May your memories give you comfort at this difficulty time. With deepest sympathy.

Hello Jerry and Marcia,
Ellen and I wish to extend our sympathy to you and your family. (Jerry I found sympathy in the dictionary right where you always told me to look.) No matter what the age it is always a lose when someone passes. Remember the blessings she brought to your lives and know that your mother will always be with you. With our deepest sympathy Frank and Ellen DiSano

My deepest sympathy to all the McNeil family. I loved going to see Mr and Mrs McNeil with my parents (Joe and Esther Rowe)every summer when we were in New York visiting my Grandparents. I could sit and listen to Mac and my Dad tell stories all day long and Your Mom was one of the sweetest people on this earth. She worked in a bakery and my father loved the goodies she would bring home for him.I know that heaven is a little brighter because they have a very special angel with them. And I know your father and my Dad welcomed her with open arms. God Bless you all.

Roddy and Jerry and families - I m so sorry to learn of Mildred's passing. My deceased husband and I worked with Mac at Mathew's Trucking Co. many long years ago. We have been friends all these years. They were both wonderful friends and I am so fortunate to have known them and loved them. My deepest sympathy to you all - I know you will miss her as I will also.
