Please accept my sympathies on the loss of Aunt Mildred. I only have childhood memories of her, but I vividly remember being so excited to visit her. She was a no-nonsense lady with an enormous heart and her beautuful smile was always welcoming. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Roz Capps (grand-daughter of Ina Rose and Jake Sipes).
