I knew Mildred and Don when I lived in Pine Township. Mildred was a beautiful person and her daughter looks so much like her. Don planted potatoes on Good Friday next to my house on Brown Road. The Drake family was always such a good example of Christianity. May happy memories sustain Edwina's family at this time.
