Not sure what to say?

Mille was one of Earth's angels. I enjoyed every moment spent with her. She was warm, caring and full of humor. She was a joy to talk with always with her ready smile and animated eyes. She was a treasure to all she met. She will be missed. Love, light and laughter to her wonderful family.

Although I never met Millie, I came to know her through my friendship with Jan. I am sorry to learn of Millie's passing. Another star in the sky, another flower in the meadow.

My heart goes out to Mille's family for their loss. I had the great pleasure of working with Mille for eleven years at Leila Arboretum. She always had an interestring tidbit to help start the day. Mille also helped me with my homework throughout the school year. It was my great pleasure to interview Mille about her childhood and her experiences growing up in the U.P. she was just a delight to talk with about anything. Mille, I will miss you.

I am so sorry to hear of Mille's passing. I was fortunate to be able to know her because of my friendship with June. She was very special to many people. My deapest sympathy.

My deepest sympathy on Mille's passing. I came to know her just in the past couple years as a volunteer in the greenhouse. But in the short association I had with her, I truly enjoyed her friendship and especially appreciated her ready smile and the twinkle in her eye. Her soft-spoken demeanor, work ethic and devotion to the arboretum and growing things inspired me. She was a very special woman who gave generously and will be missed by many. Again, my sincere condolences.
