To Margaret and the extended Boone and Winfield family, we were so blessed to become acquainted with Mildred. Her beautiful spirit will be missed. She was a brave woman in her failing health, even strengthening our faith in God by her acts of worship, praise, and prayer. He has selected for Himself a mighty soldier. May God bless you all.
