Dear family of Millie,
I was so sorry to hear of Millie's death. I adored your dear Mother and visited with her a few times last summer while I was at Mitzi's. One was when she fell in the garage and broke her wrist. :(. She was just a dear soul and had such a beautiful smile. I know how hard it will be for all of you facing this loss. You're all in my thoughts and prayers. Sending you lots of love!
Best, Gabrielle Coffman
