It is with much sadness and fond memories that I hear of Mildred's death. She was my Mother's (Virginia Phelps) dear friend and always brought joy to her. My brother (Ivo) and I went to visit Mildred some years ago when I was visiting Little Rock and it was like being with Mother again as we shared stories of their adventures. I pray the two of them are in haven enjoying each others company once again.
My prayers are with all of Mildred's family. Praying you God's comfort and peace.

She was one of my most favorite members. Her beauty was as inside as it was outside. I loved her very much and will miss her. Yet she outstands in heaven above now to help us out here.

Love,

Jenny, your family is in my prayers! May God continue to bless you with strength needed to get through the tough times. He can do it, if no one else can. I love how strong you've been the last few days talking about your sweet Nannie! She would be so proud! If there is anything you or family need please don't hesitate to call.
