To My Dear,Sweet Mother,
I miss you so much. I can't believe you have been gone from us for almost a year. You may be gone from my arms but you are always in my heart. Not a single day passes that you aren't in my thoughts.

I have just learned of Mimi's passing away and am so sorry. Mimi and her family were the best of friends back in Louisville and we had lots of wonderful times together. My best memory was spending holidays with them as we both lived away from our families. Mimi was a great friend and wonderful Mother and I'll always remember her. Gene, Jerry and Lucy Ann please accept my deepest sympathy. I know that you'll miss her terribly. Love to you all, Margaret Wesley

I got to know Mimi at Fullerton PT where I work and she was a member of our Health Club. She always had a cute joke for me and great advice for dealing with my son with Learning Disabilities. She loved her family and traveling to see them. I miss her so much since she had to stop coming but am so grateful for the chance to know her!

Mimi was such a valuable member of the team at St. Jude Medical Center. Her spirit and charm will be missed.
May Mimi's family be kept in God's loving care during this time of sorrow. Jennifer

I had the privilege of working with Mimi at St. Jude Medical Center for 5 years. In that time we became friends. Mimi always remembered my birthday and that touched my heart deeply.

She was the TRUE embodiment of dignity, service, excellence and justice. Sweet Mimi Gillespie, I hope you will rest now. Your work on this earth...

Mimi was a great person and a real joy to work with at St. Jude Medical Center.
