I was so sorry to hear of Millicent's death. She had a great influence on my life. She was the most gracious hostess, when we had lunch at her house, she make you feel very special. Millicent taught me the art of gracious living. When I set the table for a dinner party, I automatically recall her beatiful style of entertaining. I will miss my old friend.
