I have a quilt Millie made for me when I got married. I think of her often, as well as Hollis and other Smtihs from Coloma.
One of my prized possessions is the wicker plant stand Aunt Millie gave me several years ago..and I too remember the picture wall, and sending pictures of my girls to add and up date the wall. She will be in our memories.
Aunt Millie will always have a special place in the hearts of all who knew her. ( a niece)
We will always remember Aunt Millie working on the family tree and the many thoughtful things that she did for others.
Our sympathy for all of her family.
