I will always remember Mitzi! She was dynamite in a small package! She sugar coated Nothing!! And would go to war over her family. She would always have me laughing over something . She will be missed. My prayers go out to the rest of the family.

I remember Mitzi as being a loving soul and family member. She was quick to speak her mind ( which is part of the Thurman trait) but at the same time she had a heart of gold. I always looked up to her as my older cousin and as the older adult who loved her husband and family.
