Mildred was my neighbor when I was a child. And later in life my neighbor. She took very good care if herself. Loved swimming. I seen her not to long ago at the store she recommended me. Very nice neighbor and friend. Always looking out for me and my kids. She will be sorely missed. RIP MILLE. VALERIE
