Leave a tribute
Sending love and prayers to Jim and Sue, Bill and Sue and their families. Aunt Millie was wonderful aunt. We have many cherished memories.
Mama Millie was like my mama too. Sandra and I always giggled when we called her Mama Millie purple pants because of her beautiful checked stretch pants. She was a wonderful, caring person who I wished I spent more time with. Thinking of your families in this sad time. I am sure she will be truly missed by all of you. Kim
Marlene and I extend our deep felt condolence to you Jim and Sue, and to your daughters Lynne and Erin. For years we were humbled by her continued attendance to listen and watch all of you at your various musical performances with us. She was fiercely proud of you achievements, and rightly basked in the happiness that the music brought to her and all her friends. She was a beautiful person, and we know she will be missed by many friends, and her family.
