Just found out today Feb 5, 2020 that she had passed, Mildred was my first cousin on my Dad’s side hadn’t seen her in a very long time. Sending prayers out to her family, praying to God to wrap his arms around them in the following days. I know the lost so well but I remember a lot of our visits to Uncle Basil and Aunt Alta always made us welcome at there home. Plan on visiting her in the graveyard with other love ones. 🙏🙏🙏
