This is the most difficult in anyones life, to have a love one absent in the flesh. Ms. Millie will always be with you because she is in the heart, remembering everything she has ever said to you and taught you is what keeps her with you. I love all of you and I pray that God will continue to strengthen you. Always remain that strong family with strong family ties and values Ms. Millie gave to you. God bless you Kitty Boo
