Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Mielock Family on the loss of such a wonderful woman. We have had the sincere pleasure of being her next door neighbor for the past 14+ years. We couldn't have asked for a more kind and caring or better neighbor than what we've had with Dee. It will never be the same looking into her yard and not seeing her putter around, pulling weeds or trimming flowers. Many conversations have taken place thru the fences or in the yard catching up on the neighborhood or our families. She will truly be missed.
