Donna and Larry,
I wished I could have come for Mildreds celebration service, but I did want to let you both know that I will be praying for both of you and your families. Mildred and Red were both such special friends with Mom and Dad for years. I remember so many times my parents driving to Nashville to listen to numerous programs I had at church and your parents would be with them many times. I know they enjoyed going on some trips together. After mom and your dad passed away, many times Mildred would be with dad and others that would come with him to those programs as well.
So sorry that she had health challenges in her last years.
