I got to know Mildred while taking care of Reginald when he was fighting cancer. They were two of the sweetest people, and you knew they were still in love after all these years. I loved the both of them, and will miss them dearly. What a blessing it was to know them.

Dear Family,
I am sorry to hear of your loss. She was a great lady. I got to know them when Mr. Haney was sick, I work at MJH and I fell in love with both of them. You could see the love between the two of them and I take comfort in the fact that they are together in heaven. My prayers are with you.

My deepest condolences to the entire family. She was a very fine woman and she will be sorely missed. It would take a long time to find one of her stature to walk in her shoes she was such a fine person. I always admired her and the love she had for her family.
