To the family of Mildred,

Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you as you mourn the loss of Mildred.

It's been many years (we moved away from Norfok some 28 years ago) since we've had contact but had many good memories when Libby and I were youngsters visiting with our parents (Clarence & Edna) and grandparents (Clarence & Beulah) with Uncle Frank and family. We also enjoyed our trips to the cottage at Nags Head with the Gregory clan.

Blessings,
Eileen Gregory White Bradshaw

Family of Mildred . . .
My sister, Libby, just notified me of Mildred's passing.

Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you.

My family and I are living in Illinois and haven't had contact in over 25 years but, have many fond memories of times with the family when we were youngsters - visiting at the nags head cottage and in Norfolk.

May you find peace in comfort . . .

Blessings,
Eileen Gregory White Bradshaw
