A graduate of McLeansville High School she went on to finish Business College and until retiring at age 60 was an accountant and administrative assistant to several local Builders.

Mildred loved animals; she raised parakeets and other birds for sale. It was not unusual to find squirrels, fox, raccoon, lost birds and other creatures in her home to heal; what we now call, Wildlife Rescue. We wish to thank all those that helped in the care of our mother. While we miss her, may our mother now be in Heaven, fully able to see and hear those that have long awaited her arrival...pets included.
