My heart goes out to all of you. Our family will cherish our happy memories of Millie. Oh, how she would light up a room! Millie was always so welcoming to me when I was new to the south shore and made me feel like family. Such a happy and loving lady, always interested in hearing about other's lives and ready for a good time with her family all around her. She will be an inspiration to us to always look on the bright side and keep smiling. Love to you all, Barb, Tom, TJ and Bryan xo
