Our deepest sympathy to all of the Milko Family, our world has lost another dear family member. Everyone who knew Aunt Babe just had to love her. I'll never forget my 1st Christmas at the Milko home, all the decorations, food, the enormous number of gifts she had tirelessly wrapped for everyone. She + Bunky made everyone feel so welcome. Thanks for all the wonderful memories Aunt Babe, today was truly a glorious sendoff from Earth to Heaven for you. We are going to miss you, but you will always be in our hearts. Love you forever + ever, Jane, Barbie, Jimmy, Bella, Booner, Jackie + Our Danny Boy
