Valerie Mills Tyler

December 31, 2024

My name is Valerie Mills Tyler. Marge and I attended Wayne High School. We were cheerleaders for the football team. Marge and I played many tennis games at Titus Middle School (I believe that is the name). We played for hours. We were both competitors. My family moved soon after graduation to Florida. I have thought of Marge often over the years. I tried contacting her on facebook, but had no luck. Another classmate informed me of her death. I am very sad that I did not get a chance to talk with her again. I live in Houston, Texas now. I would love to chat with anyone about her. She was a very smart, fun, and athletic person. She was beautiful. My phone is 832-444-5391. My thoughts are with her family.
