My favorite memory is her hands and her nail polish color raisin. I have her hands and I miss her. She gave great advice and never intruded as she always wanted us to find the answers within ourselves. Thank you Mom.

Millie, thank you for our thirty plus years of friendship. You were the most trustworthy friend I've ever had. For your girls and Buddy, I wish peace and love knowing the eternal hope that is promised us. God bless each of you abundantly.

Mom, my friend, how I will miss you everyday. You were always there for me and never judged me. I thank you. Thank you for loving me and being such a kind and gentle soul that you are. I am so glad to have had you in my life and it was an honor to be your daughter.
