I will deeply miss "Granny Mildred", as will all of us. Everyone has a Granny Mil story or saying. My prayer is that the family will carry on the traditions in the name of Granny Mil; the card games and the Sunday dinners. Her comical response to making terrible mistakes and facing the consequences was, "When you're dumb, you have to be tough." and she meant that! I will miss laughing my pants off when she uses "colorful" language. Everything she did; she did out of love. We love and will miss you Granny Mil.
