Dear TJ&Gloria
Milly has always been a very special person with her ability to please all who come in touch with her. I feel that i have lost my mother with her departure. May God give you the patience to pass through life without her.

TJ, you and Milly have provided many happy memories for me, as a young girl. I will always remember her big smile and how good you and she were to all of us kids at Mid Way Park! God bless.

Dear Aunt Gloria, Jeff, John, TJ and family,
I am so sorry to hear of Aunt Millie's passing. I have fond memories of Midway Park and the mile-high banana cream pies she made for Jim's birthday.
She was always smiling and laughing at jokes we kids never quite heard. What a fabulous childhood we all had! I hope these memories will comfort all of you.
Love, Loraleiloverlee
