Condolences to your families. Millie was such a faithful friend to my mother. I was always grateful for that support she provided.
Unfortunately I just heard of her passing, so it is too late to attend her service. I feel very badly about that.
Peace be with you.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Millie was such a beautiful lady. We got to know her quite well while visiting our mom, Annabelle at Autumn Leaves. A life well lived! Rest in peace sweet Millie! You will be missed. God bless you!

So sorry about the passing of such a sweet lady. Remembering her and your father from many years ago with my parents. Now both our moms are together enjoying their weekly breakfast. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you.

Dear Millie's Family,

I have such fond memories of Millie. My folks were good friends of Cliff and Millie. She always seemed to have this wonderful smile whenever I would see her. I won't forget all of the "dish rags" either that she used to make. Besides playing bridge, I think knitting those dish rags was her favorite past time. Also enjoying her wonderful toffee she used to send over to my Moms house for all of us to enjoy. I will miss knowing she is not here with us anymore.
My sympathy goes out to all of you at this sad time.

Sincerely,
Pat (Calkins) Klein

Linda,

Your mother was a dear person and I was very fond of her. I feel blessed to have known her for years at Wesley and then to have had the pleasure of seeing her at Plum Landing when our friend was there and then the joy of seeing her at Autumn Leaves when we moved our friend there. She was a beautiful person and she will be missed. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
