Not sure what to say?

Micky was an inspiration to me. Her light and strength and commitment to life shined through her family and particularly my dear friends Ken and Meg. She was a very special lady and is missed.

she is with the lord and basking in His love

Absolutely a very fun and loving aunt! The joy is that I'll get to see her again! Amen!

Micky will be greatly missed by all those who knew and loved her. My weekly visit to her was filled with laughter and sharing of family events and our church, Bethany Presbyterian. It was such an honor for me to share the last 11 1/2 years with her. Micky was an extra special person and a prayer warrior of super levels.

Love and prayers to all of her family.

Grandma Micky was a truly inspirational woman who managed to keep straight the details of all of her children, grandchildren and and great-grandchildren's lives until she passed at age 97. She shared the warmth of her love and the focus of her attention in a manner that made everyone she met feel special. How lucky we are to have had her so long.

Aunt Mildred was the glue that held all of the extended family together. She always wanted to know what everyone was doing in their lives and how everyone was. After Dad died, her youngest brother Bob, we talked on the phone to keep in touch. It was our great joy to be involved in her 95th birthday celebration and we are all so glad we went. It was a wonderful family time! We will always remember her with joy in our hearts.

Mick was my sister Marge Girvan's best friend. She loved her dear friend Mick. She passed on that love to our whole family (the Hagensens).
