Aunt Millie was such a gentle and sweet woman. I never heard her raise her voice and she called everyone sweetie. She had a calmness about her that was like no other. Although our families had grown apart over the years, I always asked dad about her whenever we spoke on the phone. I don't know if the girls (my cousins) will see this or not, but I am very sorry for your (our) loss, she is finally with "Fuzzy". I will always remember getting together with the Nussers when we were kids....fun times. She will be missed very much. I know my dad is heartbroken. Stacy Barjuca
