Dear Fontcuberta and Dubuisson Families:
My deepest condolences on the loss of such a beautiful lady and the matriarch of your family.
Millie and I made a great connection the first time we met, at Scarlett's wedding shower. Then we learned that that connection went back through the generations, with her mother and Granny Larose and my dad, her grandparents and mine. We are both of Dubuisson ancestry. It is a small, small world we live in. I latter learned that my Mom's sister, Gloria Sellars, also knew Millie from their children going to school together and she and Millie going to the same church. Yep,it is a small world.
My deepest sympathy to Justine and John. I know Justine is going to miss Millie very much.
Upon learning of Millie's passing my first thought was to call Fritz and Rita Broom to tell them, then I stopped, because they to have left us. So many of our loved ones are now gone.
Always,
Mary Bell Badon Neck
