Mildred was my mentor when I "helped" at Salem Baptist Church. She was the treasurer at the church for many years and was a "treasure" when the church purchased a computer and moved into the 20th century. We would not have been able to accomplish the transition without her help!
What a great and giving lady!

We are sorry for your loss. Jehovah God provides us loving scriptures during these times. The hope found at John 5:28-29 and Revelation 21:3-4 help as we know we will see our loved ones again.

Mildred was a one-in-a-million lady. She was a great inspiration to me at Rivendell and I could not have done my work without her. She will be greatly missed.

So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the
words spoken at John 5:28,29 "(28).Do not be amazed
at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the
memorial tombs will hear his voice (29). and come out,
those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and
those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment."
