Our mother and daddy were sweethearts all through high school she wore his letter jacket proudly and never had one date with anyone else.

Most of her career was in sales at Pfeifer's Department Store. During the war years, she proudly worked in the Jacksonville Ordinance Plant.

Aunt Robbie was a very special person to me, she was always kind and generous. I have only fond memories of her and the time I spent with her and Uncle Dennis. She was a quiet, gentle, spirit. I know she is enjoying seeing all her loved ones that went before her.

I read about your mom's passing and wanted to send by love. Mothers are such special people in our lives and from reading the obituary I can see yours truly was. May God bless you as you reflect on special memories. Love, Louise

Although I did not know your mother reading her obituary brought a smile....my mother, Vada Killion, also worked at the Ordinance Plant in Jacksonville during the war years and she retired from Dillard's having worked at Pfeifer's all during my childhood and college years. She died in Dec. 2012 five weeks shy of her 99th birthday. They were strong, capable women. My sympathies to the Mills family.
