She, was a God-fearing lady, whose faith could not be wavered. She was a loving and devoted mother to her three children, grandchildren, sisters, brothers, and to all who knew her. She encouraged everyone to always turn to the Lord in hard times, good times, simply put, all the time. She prayed with you and for you, asking the Lord to “keep you safe and guide you.” She was very soft hearted and caring, always with a positive outlook on life. There was no better listener than Auntie Millie. She was very understanding and compassionate. She was a natural giver and would give the very shirt off her back and the last penny in her account when she knew someone was in need.

Faith was the key that opened the door to happiness for her. She wanted everyone to have faith in Jesus and have a relationship with Jesus.
