Mildred was a dear friend to my wife and I. She treated us like family. We looked forward to every Tuesday getting to see her at the thrift store. She would bring us special treats when we brought her fresh egg. The smoked turkey necks and pinto's was my favorite. She always bragged on her family, her mother and her church. Looking forward to seeing her again one day. We love you in the Lord "Mother Mildred". Pastor Randy & Linda Pearman / Lake Brandt Baptist Church / Greensboro N.C.
