So sorry to see Millie's obit in paper. She was my best friend in high school at Lincoln. I "lost" Millie after we both graduated, only wish I had "found" her years ago. We had lots of fun together, she was a very nice person. She will be saddly missed by many people, I'm sure.

Our dear family..
I speak for myself and my siblings when I say how sorry we are. We know and feel your pain..
The world has such few special people in it. Millie was always one to us. She loved without judgement and what a blessing that was for me and others. She loved our uncle beyond words.. And she raised children who reached out to us when we too were sharing this pain your heart feels now.. It would take days to express every one of what she shared while she was with us.. I know you all will carry on her traits and that makes our world a much better place in which to live...
Our Prayers, Love and Hugs are with you..
Love to all,
Rexcene, Jerry, Rich, Darlene and Charlene ( The Middleton clan )
