I am so sorry for your family's loss. Mickey was such a large part of the cultural community. It is truly a loss to so many. I remember her best as a docent at the art museum and a key member of the Art's Council staff. I sent you my prayers for your peace and healing.

We will always remember how thoughtful Mickey was to include us in activities at HVCC when we were new to the club. We played lots of tennis and went to many dances together. She was a beautiful person who will be greatly missed.
