Oh my Dear sweet Mildred, you will always be in the hearts of everyone you have touched. I loved caring for you and helping you when you needed it. Taking the time to talk when you wanted someone to talk with.
I think of you often, you have touched me in a way that meant so much. You will never be forgotten. I remember our conversations; you telling me that I have the "heart of an angel and I have a gift that not many people do".
You will be forever missed!
