My thoughts and prayers are with the Kehoe family. I have a lot of good memories growing up as a neighbor of Millie's and spending time at her home as a kid. As I grew up, Millie became more of friend and I am thankful for the times I was able to "stop by" and visit as she became older. She always remembered my birthday and sent me cards to keep in touch. She was a good friend to my mom and I was always appreciative when she would stop by to visit Mom when she was ill. I am glad I able to see Millie one last time this summer. My last memory of Millie was her driving down White Rd and stopping in to say hi and see my family. She was smiling and enjoying life in her eighties.
