What fun we had Millie!! You treated me like a daughter and I am so thankful that I am married to your son and I couldn't of ask for a better friend than you. We could talk about anything and what fun and laughter we had over the years. I will never forget your trips to San Diego. We loved to shop and you loved Julian where we would wait in a long line all the way down the street to have a piece of one of their homemade pies and icecream. You, your son Jerry, and I loved going to church together and then we would sing those old Christian Hymns all day long. We can't wait to see you again and we can sing songs together again, praising our Lord and Saviour!!
