I was one of the fortunate ones to have taken a class that Milt taught entitled "Adventures in Attitudes", many, many years ago. I always remember his enthusiasm and encouraging ways. I am very grateful that I was able to be one of his students. Taking that class made an enormous impact on my life and also on my husbands life as well. We developed an awesome life-long friendship with another participant in the class; because of Milt's encouragement and non-judgmental personality. He not only taught beautifully about loving people and being accepting of others, but also about being accepting and loving myself as well. He impacted me greatly about how attitude is so deeply impactful and important. Milt was a true blessing in my life.

Milt and I met at church choir and became fast friends. One of my favorite memories of him happened after choir practice. It was snowing, and Milt was waiting for me by the exit. When I was closer to him, he put his arm out for me to take. He said he knew I had trouble with my ankle and wanted to escort me to my car. He was 91, and I was more than 30 years his junior! I should have been helping him.
Milt was a true gentleman, good friend, and genuine Christian. I will always miss him.
