As I vividly think of Aunt Mildred, I remember her sitting in her special end seat, towards the front and behind the other church mothers at Bethlehem Baptist Church. I can not remember her and her immediate family ever sitting anywhere else as I was growing up. I remember sitting with her if my mother and/or aunt Anna Mae were away. I only knew and received love from Aunt Mildred and honored her in return. My sincere thoughts and prayers of comfort and strength go to the entire family and all that she loved and who loved her. Ms. Virginia P. Ivey
