Mrs. Mullins was my first grade teacher at Mitchell school in 1963. For some reason I was teacher's pet, ha! She made the other kids wait until I finished a pear I was coloring before we could go to recess. At the end of the year I had to run home to get a book I forgot. When I got back she had a bag of army men waiting and she had me give her a big kiss and hug. She was such a special lady to me and I never forgot you Mrs. Mullins. Rest in peace. My deepest condolences to Vicki and Barney and all the family. God bless! ...Kevin Miller (Goodyear, AZ)

So very blessed to have had the opportunity to meet one of the most kindest woman I have ever known. Our family has surely lost a bright and shining light.
