Dear Orrin and family,
Our deepest condolences. Mildred was a treasured Christian friend. She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and a special pastor' wife. The meaning of her name is very unique- gentle strength. She was a gentle and very kind lady who evidenced a very strong Christian Faith. She will be greatly missed but we rejoice that she is in heaven with the Lord.
Death can hide but not divide,
Thou art but on Christ's other side;
Thou art with Christ and Christ is with me,
United in Christ still are we!
Yours in the God of all comfort,

Love and prayers from the Bonsall Family. We all talk many times about the good times we had with the Christians. Mildred was a kind and giving person and wonderful cook. I still have some of her recipes. Charlene Bonsall

Dear Orrin and famiy,
Our minds flood with memories of our dear friend Mildred. She and Orrin took a young pastor and wife under their wings and we became life long friends. We had so many good times together going to conferences and just being together. We have kept in contact all these years and got to visit with Orrin and Mildred last June. We still laughed together!!! Our love and prayers go out to the family who she loved so much. She is now with Jesus and we will see you again.
