    My condolences to Mildred’s family. I used to do her hair when she would come to Wis. to visit family. She was a historian to the earlier days around here(Arkdale/Dellwood) and I enjoyed visiting with her about those times and people. She was a year older than my Mother, who was Clara (York) Waller-Greene. God’s peace to you all from Lloyd Waller in Arkdale, WI.
