We were very blessed to have so many moms looking after us. Your mom put up with a lot, us running through your house and yard like crazed children and of course the flying snowballs that never managed to hit a window. Her memory is part of my childhood memories and I thank her for that. Take care and...

To all my family,
I will miss my Aunt Millie so very much. She's with Mom now and Grandma and Grandpa and of course, Jesus! I am remembering fun things; beach outings, John Wesley College visits with Mom, my Leah's surprise 'first birthday' party at 'Great' Aunt Millie's house!, and so much more. I will always have her in my heart. I love and miss you all and my prayers are with you. Love, Susie

To the Family,
Millie is one of the most gentle, kind and caring woman I've ever met. She will always be one my role models as a mother and Christian woman. Toya Zylstra

Millie was an Angel. She is with the Angel's now.
She will be with us all in spirit.
God Bless You All!
