Pat, Elizabeth and family - please accept my sincere appreciation for the loss of your dear mom. She was truly the matriarch of your close family. It's not easy to lose a parent but beautiful memories of wonderful times shared help more than I can express. May GOD wrap you in his loving care now and forever.

Your mom was always a person that gave me words of wisdom and never held back her feelings towards whatever was on her mind. Mildred was my butterfly that help me lift my spirit whenever she called me over to sit and talk with on her patio. I did and the words she spoke touched me alot. I will truely miss her at Reflection , I will miss her calling out to me across the walkway to ask a simple question and then it would be a sit down conversation that would always end with a huge hug and a big I LOVE YOU. I will surely miss that alot. Thank you GOD for allowing her to be apart of my life for six years.

Ms. Cusic was not only my patient but also a very dear friend to my family. My children called her "Grandma Mildred." She always welcomed us into her home as if we were part of her family. We will always remember "Grandma Mildred" when we cuddle up with the blankets she made each of us. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family always.
